SBYU Teams take off in 2025!

Two weekends into 2025, Santa Barbara Youth Ultimate (SBYU) has already competed in two tournaments. Starting with “Beach of Dreams,” a 4 vs. 4 youth

07/01/2025

Coach Carl said it best, "What a great tournament weekend. I hope you all feel a huge sense of pride for the performance we put in on all the teams and on the sidelines. I know that all the coaches do. SB Flow showed up in Santa Monica ready to play with great spirit and energy.

This was easily our program's best showing at Beach of Dreams, with our U20 open teams placing 2nd and 8th in a field of 10, our first-ever-girls team placing 3rd in a field of 4, and our U15 junior high team placing 3rd in a field of 7.

More importantly than how we placed, you all played with incredible spirit, enthusiasm and energy. You kept it fun and positive while playing hard every point. You all made huge strides individually in your development as players in terms of fundamental skills, field sense, timing, and fitness. And each team came together with fantastic chemistry and flow. It was awesome to watch you all put so much out on the field, and it was even more gratifying to see how that effort and attention translated into learning and forward progress on your developmental journeys as ultimate players. Wow. There's nothing quite like a tournament to drive that kind of transformation, and you all took full advantage of the opportunity. Well done!"

YES! Well done SB Flow! Thank you Coach Carl and Coaches Jim, Sean, and Ryan!!

Also, big shoutout to Nicole Barger for the beautiful, original jersey design. The teams looked sharp!
