Bill Nye The Science Guy Predicts “In the future, ultimate frisbee in some form will have taken over the world.”
As an early pioneer of Ultimate and captain of the Seattle Windjammers, Bill Nye appreciates the unique values of integrity and sportsmanship embodied in ultimate’s “Spirit of the Game.” Add to that the non-concussive nature of the sport and it’s low cost as a new youth sports program has Bill Nye going “all-in” with the AUDL to help us bring our sport to more young players and fans everywhere.
Bill Nye lays out on an ashy field in Salem OR in 1981

Championship Weekend VII a Huge Success
This is How We Do It!
Championship Weekend VII a Huge Success
On August 11th and 12th the AUDL hosted it seventh annual Championship Weekend in Madison, Wisconsin. With the help of some beautiful weather and four talented and evenly matched conference finalists from New York, Los Angeles, Dallas and the hometown Madison Radicals, seven thousand enthusiastic fans turned out and all three games proved exciting and featured some amazing plays.
By the time the evening game on Saturday had finished our fans and supporters were yet watching another AUDL appearance on EPSN Sports Center Top 10.
The Championship Weekend is the highlight of the professional ultimate season and a major source of revenue for the AUDL. Like the NFL Super Bowl all ticket sales, merchandize, sponsorships, concessions and broadcast reviews for the three games played are earned by the league. Pregame shows and features were shown on FB Live and all three games were broadcast on the Stadium Sports Network which reached fans on their mobile phones, online and over satellite.
After a hard-fought final, the hometown Madison Radicals prevailed over a previous champion Dallas Roughnecks for their first ever AUDL Championship and the fans went crazy!
Simultaneously, we issued a challenge to our supporters to help us hit $450,000 on our StartEngine Small Open Public Offering and we are pleased to inform you that we just crossed $400,000 in funding. We want to thank all of our followers and investors for their incredible support. We now have almost 200 new owners, both small and large who have decided to invest in this inclusive, family friendly, and athletic competitive sport that embraces the values of integrity, fair play and inclusiveness.
Due this very positive momentum, we decided this week to extend the close of our Small OPO by 30 days to allow more investors to join our community of owners, especially since we are in the middle of family holiday season and many of you may be travelling or just wrapping up your summer plans.
Our final Close Date is September 15, 2018. Please join our community of owners who want to help us bring our fantastic game to a broader audience of fans and sponsors in the years ahead.

With Regulation A+, a non-accredited investor can only invest a maximum of 10% of their annual income or 10% of their net worth per year, whichever is greater. There are no restrictions for accredited investors.
With Regulation Crowdfunding, non-accredited investors with an annual income or net worth less than $124,000, are limited to invest a maximum of 5% of the greater of those two amounts. For those with an annual income and net worth greater than $124,000, he/she is limited to investing 10% of the greater of the two amounts.
At the close of an offering, all investors whose funds have “cleared” by this time will be included in the disbursement. At this time, each investor will receive an email from StartEngine with their Countersigned Subscription Agreement, which will serve as their proof of purchase moving forward.
Please keep in mind that a company can conduct a series of “closes” or withdrawals of funds throughout the duration of the campaign. If you are included in that withdrawal period, you will be emailed your countersigned subscription agreement and proof of purchase immediately following that withdrawal.
StartEngine assists companies in raising capital, and once the offering is closed, we are no longer involved with whether the company chooses to list shares on a secondary market, or what occurs thereafter. Therefore, StartEngine has no control or insight into your investment after the close of the live offering. In addition, we are not permitted to provide financial advice. You may want to contact a financial professional to discuss possible investment outcomes.
For Regulation Crowdfunding, investors are able to cancel their investment at any point throughout the campaign up until 48 hours before the closing of the offering. Note: If the company does a rolling close, they will post an update to their current investors, giving them the opportunity to cancel during this timeframe. If you do not cancel within this 5-day timeframe, your funds will be invested in the company, and you will no longer be able to cancel the investment. If your funds show as ‘Invested’ on your account dashboard, your investment can no longer be canceled.
For Regulation A+, StartEngine allows for a four-hour cancelation period. Once the four-hour window has passed, it is up to each company to set their own cancelation policy. You may find the company’s cancelation policy in the company’s offering circular.
Once your investment is canceled, there is a 10-day clearing period (from the date your investment was submitted). After your funds have cleared the bank, you will receive your refund within 10 business days.
Refunds that are made through ACH payments can take up to 10 business days to clear. Unfortunately, we are at the mercy of the bank, but we will do everything we can to get you your refund as soon as possible. However, every investment needs to go through the clearing process in order to get sent back to the account associated with the investment.
Both Title III (Regulation Crowdfunding) and Title IV (Reg A+) help entrepreneurs crowdfund capital investments from unaccredited and accredited investors. The differences between these regulations are related to the investor limitations, the differing amounts of money companies are permitted to raise, and differing disclosure and filing requirements.
