Thank you to everyone who came out for 12 Days of Christmas this past December!
It was a blast! Congrats to team PURPLE for the win!
Special shoutout to the best dressed dogs of the tournament:
Again, thank you all for a great 12 Days!
Atlanta Flying Disc Club is looking for coaches for our 2024 Youth Club Championship Teams (YCCs)! Following a successful Summer 2023 season, we will continue to develop youth Ultimate in the Atlanta area.
YCC 2023 results:
For 2024, AFDC is sending at least 4 teams to the USA Ultimate Youth Club Championships in Colorado:
In addition to these 4 teams, we will be working to create 2nd team opportunities in each division (or mixed) that will likely culminate their season locally at an end of season tournament (similar to 2022 Southeast Showdown). These 2nd teams are developmental.
**All teams dependent on USA Ultimate bidding process.**
We are seeking head coaches, assistant coaches and local coaches for all of these teams. Please fill out this form if you are interested in either the Head, Assistant Coach or Local Coach position.
Our goal is to create a collaborative group of coaches to lead this Competitive Youth Club experience, and to build a positive community of Youth players. Coaches will have assigned teams, however, all players and coaches will meet on the same schedule and at the same location during the summer, so collaboration between coaches will be a priority.
For more information, please contact info@afdc.com.

2023 Club Terminus
Thank you to all the teams who participated in our annual club tournament this year – It was a BLAST!
Three divisions, 32 teams, and two FULL days of competition!
Local team! Claiming the title for a 2nd year in a row, undefeated!
Local team! Claiming the title with zero practice and the premier deep threat in the Southeast.
Florida Team! The Pride of Tampa Bay, undefeated!
Full schedule and standings can be found HERE.
It is almost time! Terminus is this weekend, July 8-9th!
Food Trucks, Ultimate, Spin merch, tourney party, and lots of fun… Recipe for a FANTASTIC weekend!
Come on out to support local and travel teams as they battle it out at Peachtree City Athletic Complex!
AFDC is proud to announce the following teams participating in Club Terminus this year.
Full schedule and standings can be found HERE.
This year, Terminus will be at Peachtree City Athletic Complex – 30 minutes from the Altanta Airport and 45 minutes South from the city of Atlanta.
A few fun facts about the area:
PTC is a golf cart city. There are 100+ miles of multi-use golf cart paths that connect you to shopping, dining, event venues, and other recreation. You can even get to the tournament location via golf cart. A local favorite is golf carting to Lake Peachtree to watch the sunset.
If you are a Walking Dead fan, 10 minutes from the fields is downtown Senoia. Senoia is where a big portion of the Walking Dead was filmed, so there is The Walking Dead museum with a tour and a restaurant owned by Norman Reedus (Daryl).
There are a lot of green spaces and nature trails, a new disc golf course, breweries, and a variety of restaurants – so many things to do when not on the field! And if you like visiting the themed Chic-fil-As, 17 minutes Northeast of PTC is the Luau location.
Please CARPOOL when going to the tournament location.
Use the map above to navigate the fields.
Check out the food trucks on Saturday!

We hope you’ll join us in December for a great weekend of frisbee and fun!
Here’s all the important information you’ll need:
Registration details: As with all AFDC ultimate/goaltimate events you will register through the leagues page. There will be limited spots. We will have 15 players per team with 12 teams total. This will be a fully mixed tournament so a 4/3 ratio will be the default.
Check-in: Starts at 8:30am Saturday at the fields. The schedule will be sent to players Friday night. You’ll receive a Spin jersey for your assigned team color, but jersey sizes will be handed out first come first serve, so arrive early if you need a specific size.
Hat rules: All players must wear a hat at all times while playing. Santa hats, chicken hats, cat in the hats welcome! There will be a prize for the best hat! If your hat falls off while you have the disc, it’s a turn!
Youth Donation Drive: We will have a donation box near the registration tent, so please bring with you any old jerseys, cleats, cones, frisbees, pinnies/reversibles, etc. to donate to Atlanta youth players. We will also accept regular clothes and items to donate to a local organization. This is not required but does help those that need it!
In addition to the 12 Days Hat Tournament… We’re excited to bring back the fanciest pantsiest party for ultimate players in Atlanta. That’s right – Fancy Pants will be happening as well! Participants in 12 Days will get a discount on their Fancy-Pants ticket!
