Ultimate Impact

Ultimate Impact is a nonprofit that offers at-risk youth a fun and active framework for social, emotional, and physical development by providing a positive emotional outlet, adult role models, and a supportive team community through ultimate Frisbee. Due to the Spirit of the Game and with a focus on sportsmanship and camaraderie, ultimate has the ability to create a strong community for players across a spectrum of geographies and backgrounds. Since ultimate is self-officiating, players learn to take responsibility for their own behavior and are empowered to use their own judgment and ethics to govern the game play. Ultimate Impact provides a safe, positive, and inclusive environment for girls and boys. Given the strengths of the sport and its emphasis on fair play and self-regulation in particular, Ultimate Impact strengthens the physical, social, and emotional development of youth (ages 6-18) from underrepresented communities.
