The UNC Darkside men won the Atlantic Coast regional championship on May 6th and earned the region's only bid to the 2012 USA Ultimate D-I College Championships in Boulder, CO on May 25-28. And they need our help to get there!
All proceeds from this hat tournament will go directly towards the team's costs of representing the Triangle, the state of NC, and the entire Mid-Atlantic region at Nationals. Support them by playing ultimate & invite all of your friends to play too!
If you're able to help out by donating even more than the free agent fee, that would be awesome!
"Thanks to everyone that donates/plays!"
- Justin Moore, #11 Darkside

TFDA Board is seeking individuals to serve on the TFDA Ultiplex Committee!
The board of the Triangle Flying Disc Association invites you to consider serving on a new standing committee dedicated to the development of the nation’s first Ultiplex.
This Ultiplex Committee will work independently of the TFDA board, but will report to that body on a regular basis. To cut to the chase, we need your help!
The Ultiplex is poised to be built, with the land all but secured and the county zoning and planning obstacles already overcome. The Ultiplex Committee will strategize the next steps involved in the development of the Ultiplex, which will also entail devising means to raise funds at the grassroots, corporate, and State and Federal levels. Additionally, the Ultiplex Committee may work out ways to partner with USA Ultimate, WAFC, and/or other Ultimate organizations.
What is being sought are several traits and skills, which we do not expect will reside with any single individual. These are:
- Construction development experience in order to see the big picture and to coordinate scheduling (of fundraising, construction, and other activities)
- Grant writing experience for the purpose of pursuing available public and private funding
- Fundraising expertise in order to coordinate grassroots fundraising and other donation-promoting activities
- Motivated leadership (to ensure continued proactive enterprise from all involved on this committee)
- Accounting/Finance experience to ensure that moneys associated with land ownership and construction are handled professionally to save costs and meet IRS needs
Please contact the TFDA board, if you are willing and able to assist with the further development of our Ultiplex. Just send an email to:
