What: Girls 5v5 Indoor Ultimate League. We project four teams of 8 to 12 girls per team. We’ll use an indoor rule set similar to these ones HERE. Bring Sneakers.

Jan. 11, 18, 25
Where: The Paideia Multipurpose Gym. (1509 South Ponce de Leon Ave NE, Atlanta, GA 30307). It is #14 on this campus map.
Why: There has been demand for more playing opportunities for girls! We hope this league will develop a stronger community and healthy competition within the girls division. Our location is in a convenient in-town location, indoors (resistant to cold/bad weather!). We also offer flexible / sliding scale payment options so that cost is not a factor for those families with a tighter budget.
Cost: Sliding scale from $5-100 for the entire season. Payment options are at the end of this form.
Please reach out to Miranda Knowles (League Commissioner) <knowles.miranda@paideiaschool.org> and/or Josh Feng (Youth Executive Director) <josh.feng@afdc.com> for more details or if you have any questions or comments.
Per the elections procedures in our bylaws, the AFDC membership has elected the previously proposed slate of candidates. As of October 8th, the AFDC board is as follows:
The board has also approved bylaws changes making our DEI and Atlanta Women’s Ultimate chairs voting directors and has proposed the following two members to fill those roles:
Any member of the corporation (as defined as someone who has played in a regular AFDC league in the 2024 or 2025 calendar year) who wishes to oppose anyone on this slate must do so in writing to president@afdc.com prior to October 16, 2025. Failure to oppose a candidate by any Member of the Corporation in accordance with the provisions of Article IV, Section 4 of the AFDC Bylaws shall be deemed a vote in support of the candidate by such Member.
Our annual elections are nearing their conclusion. The board proposes the following slate of candidates to take office in seven days. Any member of the corporation (as defined as someone who has played in a regular AFDC league in the 2024 or 2025 calendar year) who wishes to oppose anyone on this slate must do so in writing to president@afdc.com prior to October 8, 2025. Failure to oppose a candidate by any Member of the Corporation in accordance with the provisions of Article IV, Section 4 of the AFDC Bylaws shall be deemed a vote in support of the candidate by such Member.
Below is the slate of candidates proposed to serve on the 2026 board:
The positions of President, Ultimate Director, and Goaltimate Director were not vacant. The remainder of the board roles were not filled and remain vacant.
NOTE: In order to give the new board a chance to determine its operating schedule, the October Board Meeting (originally planned for October 1) has been postponed.
We’ll be holding our AFDC August Board Meeting virtually on Wednesday, August 6th, at 7pm Eastern. Please email president@afdc.com for a link to join. Please include any items you’d like for the board to consider for the agenda.
This month we’ll hear from Josh Feng, our Youth Executive Director and then the board will enter executive session (only voting members allowed) to discuss nominees for the open board positions.
This week, the AFDC Board of Directors approved three changes to our Bylaws intending to make volunteering easier and our elections more streamlined and accessible. The three changes are described below (the full text of the changes can be found here and the current bylaws can be found here).
Detailed explanation to follow.
If you have any questions about these (or other) Bylaws, feel free to reach out to president@afdc.com.

But wait – there’s more! We are holding a “learn to play” event at the Historic 4th Ward skateboard park on May 11, 2025, to build awareness of the AFDC and attract new players. We need a dozen or so folks to volunteer to play pickup, meet new people, and generally have fun. Contact Barckley Toole (barckleytoole@gmail.com) if you are interested in helping out.
