Welcome to Reign!
At Reign Ultimate, we're building a tight-knit community of members passionate and dedicated to the sport. Beyond the competition on-field, we're all about building social connections that last long after that final horn blows. We do this through providing playing and social opportunities tailored for players of all skill levels—whether they're vying for gold at nationals, or touching a disc for the first time.
Throughout the year we host a variety of ultimate programs, including introductory courses for our first-timers, club teams for our experienced players, prospect camps for our elite players, and classroom sessions for coaches. If you want to throw with us, there's always a unique opportunity for you every step of the way.
If you or your child is looking to get involved with ultimate in your community, get in touch with the Reign team at reign@vul.ca, and we'll direct you towards the options that are right for you!
Financial Assistance
We understand that cost can be a barrier for some families in accessing sport programming in their community. We're here to provide equal opportunities for all players, no matter their unique family situations. If your family can benefit from financial assistance, we encourage you to explore external funding options, or apply for a Reign Player Grant. Contact the Reign team at reign@vul.ca if you have any questions.

I've lived in Richmond for 14 years, played Ultimate in Richmond for 12 years, and coached Ultimate in Richmond for eight years. I came from the Richmond junior program before it was a club, and I really want to see Richmond Ultimate thrive, and it all starts with the juniors.
