Crackerjacks Ultimate Club (Singapore)
Brief Description
Crackerjacks Ultimate was formed in 2012 with the purpose of creating a world class Men's Ultimate team based in Singapore, bringing together the best players in the country and grooming the next generation. Our members consist of the top players from all the different mixed clubs in Singapore and we have players from different age ranges. Our youngest players include those who are still studying in tertiary institutions and our oldest players are working adults who are already married.
The variety of skills and tactics from the different clubs have contributed to the versatility of Crackerjacks in terms of tactics and gameplay, with the ability to run various offenses and defences. Working towards our goal of being the top Men’s Ultimate team in Singapore, the club has had a few achievements over the past 4 years as mentioned below.

Our Albert Park League (APL) team has risen from playing in a Division 4 league, to a Division 2 league after placing first in both Division 3 and 4 seasons.

We are a competitive team that is represented in the Mixed, Men’s and Women’s Divisions, indoors and outdoors. Our teams have consistently excelled at regionals and nationals, with impressive results over the years. These include:
The club has a yearly membership of around a 100, and over 600 active alumni from all over the world. Our players are active in the various ultimate scenes and clubs in their home countries, and are passionate about playing and growing the sport. Many of our current players and alumni go on to be part of the UK’s top clubs (Clapham Ultimate, Fire of London, Ka-Pow!, Iceni, SYC, Deep Space, Thundering Herd, etc.), and some have also represented GB or their respective countries at World Championships and Euros (GB Open, GB Mixed Masters, GB U24 Mixed, GB U24 Women, GB U20 Women, GB U17 Women, GB Women Masters Beach, GB Mixed Masters Beach, Mexico Mixed, China Mixed, HK U24 Mixed).

University of Melbourne. As an official sports club, MUU aims to send teams to represent the
university at various tournaments, including Division I and II Nationals. MUU teams have placed in
the top 3 in an intervarsity competition every year since 2012, hence we pride ourselves on hard
work and dedication to the sport. Winning gold in 2012 and 2015, MUU has upheld a high standard

As most ultimate players begin their sporting careers whilst undertaking tertiary study, MUU also
aims to inspire new athletes to take up the sport and motivate players of all skill levels to improve
their playing ability.
Currently, our club boasts a large membership of players of all ages and we aim to expand numbers
greatly in the years to come. MUU is focused on bolstering its reputation both in the frisbee and

future.

National Youth Team Program (Singapore)
The National Youth Training Program seeks to identify and develop top youth players by exposing them to club and international level early. Facilitating inter-club and inter-school interaction, NYTP also serves the secondary purpose to facilitate cohesion between club players.
NYTP not only aims to develop and raise the level of technical skills but also administrative and team management skills by having them wholly manage the program.
This will in turn prepare our younger players to take up bigger responsibility in sports management in the future.
