Founded in 1976, Warwick Bears Ultimate Frisbee Club is the longest surviving Ultimate club in Europe, and among the oldest in the world. The club is a major player in the Midlands and has won several national titles in the Open, Women’s and Mixed University divisions.
We’re a friendly club always on the lookout for more members and welcome complete beginners as well as experienced players. We train both indoors and outdoors, several times a week. If you are heading to Warwick University be sure to head to one of our taster sessions in weeks 1 and 2.
Warwick Bears 2018/19
Ultimate Frisbee has been governed by BUCS since 2008; Warwick Bears won the gold medal in the inaugural BUCS season and have proceeded to qualify to nationals regularly.
2013 saw the first game between Warwick Bears and Coventry Firebirds. Bears won this inaugral Varsity game and Ultimate Frisbee has since been a regular Varsity fixture, which Warwick has won every year!
Warwick Bears are also famous for their packed social calendar, with weekly events for all, organised by our hard-working social secretary. Activities range from “circling” in the Students’ Union to meals, pub crawls, disc golf, clubbing and many more.
The club is run by a dedicated ‘Exec’ committee who are elected by members annually. Any member may run for one of these positions and newcomers are encouraged to get involved! To find out more about the current and past exec members, please visit our Exec page here.
If you have any questions or want to find out more, head over to our Contact Us page or contact us on Facebook; we’d love to hear from you!
