Washington Area Frisbee Club opens 2026 youth summer camp registration

Washington Area Frisbee Club has mapped out three summer weeks for its 2026 youth camp, giving Washington, D.C., families a structured entry point into ultimate for players ages 10 to 14. The camp will run July 20-24, July 27-31 and August 3-7, and registration closed Tuesday, June 30, 2026.

WAFC is pitching the program as open to all genders and useful for both newer athletes and players with more experience. The camp listing is tagged for beginners, intermediate players, mixed participation, grass, hardcourt, summer and youth, and campers will work through one-on-one instruction, group drill stations, focused scrimmages, spirit games and team-building activities that are designed to build physical and social-emotional skills through the sport.

The daily rhythm is built for families that need more than a bare-bones sports clinic. Optional before-care will lead into throwing work and mini games, followed by outdoor skills and drills, lunch and chalk talk, then indoor teambuilding and evening scrimmaging or question-and-answer time with counselors. Trinity Washington University will give the camp an indoor gymnasium, adding a weather-proof option when storms move through or the heat pushes play indoors. WAFC’s staffing plan also called for one head counselor and three to four assistant counselors, with applications due Sunday, February 15, 2026.

The camp sits inside a broader youth pipeline that WAFC has assembled for 2026. The club’s youth hub also lists Youth Club season registration, YCC event registration and the new Day of Play, turning summer into a series of connected steps for young players who want to stay in the sport. Youth Club runs from May 26 through July 30 and remains WAFC’s elite summer program, with teams in the U17 and U20 divisions that compete locally, regionally and at USA Ultimate Youth Club Championships. The YCC event is set for Aurora, Colorado, from July 31 through August 4, and Day of Play is scheduled for August 23 as a lower-pressure youth ultimate event.

WAFC describes itself as a nonprofit volunteer organization dedicated to promoting flying disc sports in the Washington D.C. metropolitan area, and the camp reflects that mission in practical terms. It gives families a clear summer option, gives younger players a first organized step into ultimate, and gives the club another bridge between introductory play and the higher-level youth pathway it already has in place.
