The CEUUC began in 1998 and brings university teams primarily from Ontario and Quebec together to compete in the open & the women's division.

Not far removed from the invention of ultimate in the late 1960s, Ken Westerfield and Jim Kenner (the founder and CEO of Discraft) ran the Canadian Open Frisbee Championships with guts, disc golf, freestyle, ultimate and individual field events in the early 1970s at the Canadian National Exhibition.

This is where Jim Brown, Bill King, and John Anthony of freestyle fame made their first competitive appearances.

In 1979, Westerfield using his local tournament player contact list, started weekly ultimate pick-up games in the Beaches on the same grassy area next to the boardwalk on Wednesday evenings.

Lowcock, Westerfield, and the others would recruit more players as they passed along the boardwalk, Wednesday's ultimate pick-up was becoming very popular.

[11] The first Canadian Ultimate Championships (CUC) was held, for the open division, Ottawa in 1987, produced by Marcus Brady and Brian Guthrie.

[19] It is Canada's oldest ultimate league with teams participating every season, on most days of the week and various fields (indoor and outdoor) throughout the year.

The club consists of three full-time managers, a strong board of directors that represents the membership, and over 100 volunteers.

It also hosts clinics and introductory programs for new players and supports several elite club teams that compete in provincial, national and international championships.

Founded in 2004, the CUA coordinates year-round leagues, annual tournaments, a growing juniors program, and outreach efforts to promote the sport of ultimate frisbee within Calgary and surrounding areas.

Each year in June the CUA hosts the annual Ho-Down and Slo-Down tournament that draws more than 30 teams from across Western Canada and the United States.

Although the sport first came to Montreal in 1984, the 1993 season truly signaled the start of an Ultimate league that eventually became the association we know today.
