Halycon is the University of Manchester's student Ultimate Frisbee club. We're a mixed club with players of all experience levels - from people picking up a disc for the first time to players competing at the highest level of university Ultimate. You don't need to be sporty. You don't need to know the rules. Just come along, meet some people and give it a go.

New to Ultimate?

We run taster sessions during Freshers' Week on 25, 26 and 27 September, followed by beginner-friendly training from 28 September.

Our experienced members run these sessions throughout the year, so you can learn everything from throwing your first disc to playing your first game.

We also enter four beginners' tournaments during Semester 1.
