Description: Join us in Hyattsville!
We play at Driskell Park (formerly Magruder Park) every Saturday at 12pm and every Tuesday and Thursday at 5pm. In the winter we play with lights. The GPS address is 3911 Hamilton Street, Hyattsville, MD.

On Facebook we post game recaps, usually with video highlights; cancellation notices due to inclement weather; and invitations for social gatherings.

We play coed pickup year round outdoors on grass. We play 7v7s with subs via “last back.” Our player skill levels include people who have never played before and also people who are on college teams.

We do not require a set number of women per team, so female players choose for themselves whether to play across or side-by-side. We do not automatically matchup “gender across,” but instead allow everyone on defense to pick their matchups before the pull.

We encourage everyone to always avoid contact, even if you can get to the disc first. And if you drop a pull it’s not a turnover; instead we suggest doing a cartwheel as penance. ???? To speed up play we don’t enforce onsides rules on the pull, but otherwise we use the USA Ultimate rule set.

We currently play on a lined official USA Ultimate size playing field, but with 15 yard deep end-zones instead of 20 yards. We play using Discraft Ultra-Star 175 gram discs.

We encourage everyone to wear WHITE or DARK shirts to split up teams; grays are frowned upon. We have an online clothing store for anyone who wants Hyattsville Ultimate apparel, which will facilitate us fielding teams at tournaments.

There is a public restroom and a water bottle filling station at the park. The water bottle filling station is turned off in the winter.
