Founded in 2018, the Atlanta Soul is Atlanta’s professional women’s ultimate team. Team co-owners, Maddy Frey and Angela Lin have played significant roles in growing women’s ultimate visibility in Atlanta. Angela Lin, a veteran member of Atlanta Ozone and former AFDC Board member, was recently inducted into the Ultimate Hall of Fame. Maddy Frey also serves as the Premier Ultimate League President and helped found our own Atlanta Women’s Ultimate, and Outbreak & Orbit (women’s club teams).
We’re happy to have a partnership with this organization that shares a mission to increase the visibility of female athletes in the sport. Atlanta Soul players are very active in the community – coaching youth teams at the MS, HS & college level, leading Atlanta’s YCC teams, volunteering on AFDC committees, and serving as role models for developing youth players. Look for more outreach efforts in partnership with Atlanta Soul during their off-season, as they help us in leading coaches clinics, women’s league, and facilitate gender equity conversations across the community.
