Dive into Frisbee Fun with Whakatū Ultimate

Immerse yourself in the excitement of Ultimate, a non-contact frisbee sport hosted by Whakatū Ultimate every Sunday afternoon in Nelson. This engaging team game is perfect for all ages, welcoming both men and women, whether you’re a beginner or a pro. Sessions run at 3:00pm during summer and 2:00pm in winter, lasting about 90 minutes. It’s completely free to participate, so there’s no barrier to joining the fun. Simply arrive at the scheduled time for warm-up throws before teams are picked and play begins on a marked field. The objective? Score by catching a pass in the opposing end zone while passing strategically to teammates.

Expect a friendly, inclusive vibe where first-timers are often placed on a team to start playing right away, though you might wait if player numbers need balancing. Ultimate isn’t just about the game—it’s about building connections and staying active outdoors. With Frisbee Golf also on offer, there’s something for everyone. 🏅🌀 No special equipment is needed; just bring your energy and comfortable attire, and check the club website for any updates before heading out.
