Nomad Ultimate
Nomad was founded in 2021 by a group of ex-UCT students. We are a group of friends that love playing high-quality Ultimate and hanging out with each other. We have done incredibly well for a young club and are constantly complimented on our spirit and sportsmanship by our opposition.

Club History
In late 2019 a group of graduating and recently graduated UCT students started discussing a new team for 2020. We hoped to create a team of friends to play clean, competitive Ultimate while having fun. We managed to get our friends to sign on with promises of whale kit and psychedelic camels (still waiting on the camels). We all know how 2020 went, so come 2021 Nomad was born! Our club has grown over the last two years and we hope to be able to make two teams once we are big enough.

What kind of player would be a good fit with our club?
We are a relatively young team and do like to keep pretty fit. We play the basic ultimate structures and play them well! We love having new players and are always focused on doing the basics well. Our club has a lot of depth and we try to use all our players equally and in the positions where they are strongest and most comfortable. We are proud of how everyone in our team contributes and how it shows up in our games stats. We're a pretty goofy team off the field and like hanging out and doing other activities together.
