Positive Mojo - Aberdeen University Ultimate Frisbee

Caledonia's Ultimate Beach Event (CUBE) was the first official beach tournament to be affiliated with the governing body for beach ultimate (BULA) in the UK, and for a number of years was the official British Beach Ultimate Championships. It is the most northerly BULA affiliated beach ultimate tournament in the UK. Since CUBE has become an established fixture on the ultimate calendar, one- and two-day beach tournaments have sprung up across the UK, from Troon (West Scotland), to St Andrews (East Scotland) all the way down to Poole (South England).

Beach ultimate is simply a cross between ultimate played outdoors on grass, and indoors in a gym hall, except it is on sand! Teams are 5-aside, and at CUBE there are no rules on male : female ratios.

There is a growing band of followers of CUBE, and each year demand for a team space seems to increase. The level of competition is also steadily rising year on year, with branded merchandise also a regular fixture. With a Scottish country dancing ceilidh now a tradition for the Saturday night party, and prizes awarded in the best sandcastle competition, it is also a fun weekend at the beach*!
