Tournaments are a great way to improve your skills, form stronger bonds with teammates and make new friends. More importantly, they are a ton of fun! Tournaments are what get a lot of players hooked on the sport and community. There are a few in Vancouver, but several occur in other ultimate communities around the province and region.
Here’s a list of tourneys for Fall 2015. If you are the organizer of a tournament you’d like to be included in this article, get in touch with our Marketing Manager.

- October 10: VUL Turkey Tourney (Vancouver)
- October 24-25 Pumpkin Pull (Victoria)

Teams of 8, gender ratio 3/1
Info

Camping - reserve camping before you arrive to ensure your site! If you are camping, you need to have a reservation before arrival (day use parking fee included) OR pay a day use parking fee Please do not hassle the park rangers about paying the parking pass fee if you will not be camping; we are required to do this for the use of the park facilities and beach. They would probably appreciate a beer if you have any extra :-) Be Nice!
