About Us
The Ultimate Frisbee Club is a fast moving team sport enjoyed by lots of people over the world.
At the Ultimate Frisbee Society we are a friendly, fun, but still competitive group who know a sports society is much more than just the game. We welcome players of any ability to train and play in an enjoyable environment, whether you play haven’t a clue how the game works or have played professionally, we’d love for you to join us for a session with the Chichester Cobras!!
Most students haven’t played frisbee before coming to university, so if you do come to try it out having never played before, we can assure you won’t be the odd one out. Our trainings are aimed at the level of those who rock up, aiming to develop everyone’s skills at a rate we’re all comfortable with, while also preparing for competitions. The club hosts socials aside from trainings open to all, and will have a variety of events throughout the year.
What is Ultimate Frisbee?
Ultimate is a non-contact, self-refereed team sport played with a flying disc, often compared to a combination of a few sports (American football, Netball, frisbee). It’s played both indoors and outdoors, with the objective to score points by getting the disc into the end-zone to be caught in order to score (like American football). But like in Netball, the player with the disc cannot move with it.
Indoors, the sport is played 5-a-side on a court that is similar in size to a Basketball court. Outdoors, the sport is played 7-a-side on a pitch similar to a small Football pitch.
If you are interested in finding out more about the sport, the governing body’s (UK Ultimate) website has more information: http://www.ukultimate.com/
Here is a link to a document containing useful information for any frisbee player, particularly frisbee freshers (What we call people new to Frisbee!) https://www.ucsu.org/asset/Organisation/6260/UCSU-Cobras-Frisbee-Theory-Starter-Pack.pdf
The University has three competitive teams with female, mae, and mixed squads all competing indoors and outdoors, in both matches and tournaments.
In the 2025/26 season we had a successful year with our both our women’s and men’s teams qualifying for div 2 indoor nationals where they placed 7th (women’s) and 13th (men’s). Our Men’s team also qualified for div 2 outdoor nationals where they placed 7th.
We’re looking forward to even more impressive results in seasons to come!!
