Bonibusses (sic) A note to those interested in trying out Ultimate: nearly all of WUFO's members had no experience playing ultimate before coming to a WUFO practice. As an organization, WUFO prides itself on being accepting of new members of all levels, who join at any point during the year.

==Structure== Unlike NCAA run sports, Ultimate Frisbee is run by the USAU ([http://www.usaultimate.org/) and we currently compete at the DIII level. In the era before division into division, Williams enjoyed impressive success given its size, winning the West New England sectional tournament 2005 through 2007 and sending teams to Nationals in 2003, 2007, and 2009. In addition to sporting an A-team and 2 B-teams, WUFO members are often lifelong friends and frequently come back to visit one another and current Wufites. WUFO alums (or [[Kraftee|Kraftees]]) have gone on to play and coach many NE teams; most notable is WUFO's presence on DoG and Twisted Metal, two NE club teams who are both top 10 nationally. Every fall, WUFO holds the [http://ihuck.com/tiki-index.php?page=PurpleValleyHistory Purple Valley tournament]. A unofficial but deeply entrenched part of the WUFO culture is the holding of creative theme parties. There is even an elected member of the WUFO board dedicated to planning these events, the President/Mistress of Vice. ==Traditions=====Games===Sometimes, after or between games, teams will get together for group games related or unrelated to frisbee. ===Cheers===It is a tradition to perform a team cheer before a game for the combined purposes of psyching yourself up, psyching your rivals out, setting the game mood, and showing off your own cleverness, coordination, or ridiculousness. Most of the cheers are funny, some are unsuitable for tournaments with families present, and some are reprinted below. *''El camino, el el camino<br>The front is like a car; the back is like a truck<br>El camino, el el camino<br>The front is where you drive; the back is where you<br>El camino, el el camino ===Variations===The below variations on the rules of the game may be suggested by a player (usually by just shouting out the variation name when he thinks there will be general agreement) and may endure for one point or the rest of the game. '''Doob Point''' The next point can only be scored by a diving catch. '''Dinosaur Point''' Members of both teams must play the entire point with both arms fully extended (Pterodactyl team) or with both elbows fixed to the body (T-Rex team). ===Mottos=== *''Everything<--->Connects''*''Bonibusses (sic) are green,<br>Mountains are purple,<br>I like the dean,<br>But WUFO is psyched.''*''no hassle, no pain, no damage to the brain'' ==Contact== *<email>dao1@williams.edu</email>*<email>kcc2@williams.edu</email>*<email>sjk3@williams.edu</email> ==See also== Our much more up-to-date website, https://williamsultimate.com/
