Altitude Ultimate Spring HS League Registration + Updates!
Ben Fletcher
The registration for the high school league this season is up! You can find additional details on the league and REGISTER from the AYU League Page >>>
The league will begin on Tuesday, March 3 for the Girls Division and Thursday, March 5 for the Open division. The league will run for 8 weeks. Default game days will be Tuesday for Girls and Thursday for Open, but games may be rescheduled to different days if agreed upon between teams. More info on logistics for playing games will follow after registration closes.
The Registration Deadline is Friday, February 20! I will follow up with some reminders as we get closer to the deadline. Please note that the Eligibility form will need to be submitted by all teams participating in the season by this date as well (more information below).
We will get the schedule made and out to you all ASAP after the deadline.
In preparation for the season, please also find your team on the Team Finder and confirm that your team’s contact info is correct. If you need any updates or if your team is new and needs added, send an email to mi...@altitudeyouthultimate.org to submit edits!
Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns at all, and we look forward to a great Spring Season!
Note on Inclusion and Participation
AU welcomes all players to participate in the league. The league will follow USA Ultimate’s Gender Inclusion Policy, and players are invited to play in the gender division that most closely aligns with their identity. Teams participating in the league agree to respect and uphold this policy, including all coaches, players, parents, fans, and other individuals associated with the team.
Please also note that the league will be sanctioned with USA Ultimate, and each team will need to have an adult chaperone with a current background check and Safe Sport.
Eligibility
We would like to better understand which schools are represented in the high school league this season, and to ensure that all eligibility exceptions are approved. As part of this effort, we will be requiring all teams to submit the Eligibility form this season. The form will ask whether your school has players participating who attend schools other than the school represented by the team. We understand that some teams do not have players who do not attend their school - if this applies to your team, please briefly submit the form and indicate that you do not seek any eligibility exceptions.
The Eligibility form for the 2026 Spring season can be found here. All teams are required to submit the form and we will be following up with teams participating in the league season who have not submitted the form.
The deadline for all teams to submit the Eligibility form is Friday, February 20. This is for any players you know will be joining your team at the start of the season, and is also for combo teams. There will be a second deadline for the Eligibility form later in the season, April 4, for any players who have been added to the team during the season. We will be sending responses to teams who have submitted eligibility exception requests after each deadline.
Please feel free to reach out to Mike and I with any questions, and please see the Eligibility Requirements Doc for more information on high school eligibility.
