Our History
Cedar Rapids Ultimate was founded in 2013 with the goal of organizing the Ultimate community in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. What started as a group of friends playing Ultimate, has now grown into a community of Ultimate players of all experience levels. CRU now offers opportunities to play throughout the year, including youth leagues, tournaments, and pick-up games.
