U-24 National Team Selected for 2025 Worlds | USA Ultimate

Colorado Springs, Colo. (December 10, 2024)—Seventy-two players were named to the U-24 U.S. National Team in advance of next year’s WFDF World U-24 Ultimate Championships in Spain, USA Ultimate announced today.

Athletes were chosen by Team USA coaching staff following a pair of tryouts last month and offered a spot on one of the delegation’s three rosters: mixed, open or women’s. Each roster will feature 24 of the nation’s best college-aged players as they look to replicate a successful 2023 campaign that ended with a collective 27-0 record and a trio of gold medals.

All totaled, more than 600 players applied for consideration with just over 200 invited to tryouts before final selections were made. Rosters for the age-restricted teams include just 12 holdovers from last year’s U-24 teams, plus eight athletes that competed for Team USA at the World Junior Ultimate Championships earlier this year.

Held every two years, the U-24 World Championships are scheduled to take place June 21-28 in Logroño, Spain. Since the event’s inception in 2013, the U.S. has compiled a 148-1 record, winning 14 of the 15 available gold medals.
