The tournament is expected to draw 30 to 40 teams from across the nation, with approximately 600 competitors and officials participating in the three-day event.
This event demonstrates the confidence the Ultimate Frisbee community has in the state-of-the-art facilities at Shepparton Sports City, with a two-year partnership secured to host the championships in the region for both 2025 and 2026.
Mayor, Councillor Shane Sali expressed his enthusiasm for the event’s return, highlighting the benefits it brings to the region.
“We are very excited to welcome Australia’s top Ultimate Frisbee athletes back to Greater Shepparton after a very successful visit in 2022 and 2024. The Championships will see the very best male and female competitors using their strength and agility to sprint, leap and throw their way to victory – a lot more thrilling than your average backyard or park game,” he said.
“Ultimate Frisbee is a growing sport, and we are proud to host these championships and invite the athletes to experience all that Shepparton and the Goulburn Valley have to offer. Having these athletes stay in the city for the three-day competition greatly benefits our visitor economy industries and has a positive impact on local businesses as they sleep, eat, explore and play in the region.”AFDA Chief Executive Officer, Maxwell Gratton encouraged local residents to attend the event and witness the excitement of Ultimate Frisbee at a national level.
“The Australian Flying Disc Association (AFDA) is delighted to be back at Shepparton’s Sports City Precinct to host the 2025 Australian Ultimate Championships Division 2. There will be many great matches to see. It will be a great opportunity to witness the excitement of Ultimate Frisbee,” he said.
“The Australian Ultimate Championships Division 2 is the national championship tournament for teams that do not compete in the Division 1 Australian Ultimate Championships. Teams from across Australia qualify to compete through regional qualifiers. The AFDA sincerely thank the Greater Shepparton City Council for their support over the years.”For further information, please call Council on 5832 9700 or email [email protected].
