Dear WUL Community,
What an exciting close to the regular season! While I’m eager to see Bay Area Falcons, Colorado Alpenglow, San Diego Super Bloom, and Utah Wild compete for the WUL Championship, I also want to show appreciation for Seattle Tempest and Arizona Sidewinders on a solid season full of competitive games and high level ultimate. All six teams contributed to an unforgettable third season of the WUL.
We have an incredible final weekend coming your way at Pinnacle Athletic Complex in Thornton, CO and whether you’re joining us in person or at a team watch party, all live streams of the games will continue to be free and available to all!

Semifinal #1: Bay Area Falcons vs Utah Wild, 1pm PT // 2pm MT
Semifinal #2: Colorado Alpenglow vs San Diego Super Bloom, 4pm PT // 5pm MT

I do want to share that after Champ Weekend comes to a close, I will be stepping down as the WUL’s Executive Director. I accepted this role last year at a time when the league was in transition, and I’m pleased to report that my efforts on being a stabilizing force and investing in the areas where we needed the most support appear to be paying off. I’m so proud to see what our league has accomplished this year and to know that we are in a position of strength moving forward.
However, my personal and professional bandwidth has recently shifted significantly as I’ve been offered a new job opportunity, and it is with a heavy heart that I hand the reins off to someone new. I’m so impressed to see the progress this league has made in locating a new Executive Director, and an announcement will be made in the coming weeks as to my successor.
I have marveled at the commitment and hard work of so many players, coaches, ownership groups, investors, and volunteers who make this league happen. It is no small feat to launch a professional sports league, nor the teams within it. It is the spirit and strength of our community that sustains the Western Ultimate League as it wraps up its third season this weekend.
The mission and vision of this league is unlike anything we’ve seen in professional sports and I see a bright future for us. If you too would like to see this league thrive, consider a donation or ask your local team how you can support their efforts. The WUL will always be driven by the power of our collective community.
I am grateful for this opportunity and for the personal relationships I’ve formed with so many of you who are part of this league. See you out on the field!
Cheers,
Megan Andrews
Executive Director
