Submitted by Britany Gordon on Wed, 2023-05-31 10:26
On June  10th,  Canadian Ultimate players from the East to West Coast are participating in the Great Canadian Ultimate Game. The Art Hawkins Great Canadian Ultimate Game will pit white against red to raise awareness and money for the Art Hawkins Fund program. The white team and the red team will huck, flick, and layout to help their team become the champion, and raise the most money for the Art Hawkins Fund.
 
The Art Hawkins Development Fund's purpose is to support the accessibility and development of Ultimate and Spirit of the Game in Canada with children, youth, and those with a disability, especially in economically disadvantaged communities. Learn more about the late Art Hawkins, the namesake, and his contribution to Ultimate in Canada.
 
This year, our game will take place at 4pm-6pm at UPI.  All are welcome to come support, donate, and throw a disc in honour of Art Hawkins.
Donations for the game are being accepted through this Ultimate Canada donation form and directly through local Ultimate communities - cash donations will be accepted on-site June 10.
