Ultimate Victoria is now accepting expressions of interest for all athletes eligible to represent the state at Under 22 level (born 1999 or later) in 2021. Read more to find out how to sign up.
ELIGIBILITY
Upper limit: To be eligible to play you must be born ON or AFTER 1 January 1999
Lower limit: Victorian U22 teams will only be accepting players who are 15 years and older as at April 1st, 2021.
TEAMS
Victoria will be sending four teams to the Championships in 2021. There will be an Men’s team, a Women’s team, and a Mixed team.
Unfortunately this year there will not be a Mixed Country (Greater Bilbies) team as our regional clubs are still rebuilding after the COVID-19 disruption in 2020. UV will be making plans to help these clubs grow over the next 12 months and re-introduce the Mixed Country team in 2022.
