We have various opportunities to volunteer within our organization, as well as ways to give back to the Olympia, Lacey, Tumwater, and Yelm community. Below is a current list of our volunteer opportunities. If you're interested in volunteering, please contact the board at olyultimate@gmail.com.
Coaches are always needed for all ages of the youth program, including winter, spring, and summer leagues, YMCA summer camp and afterschool enrichment, and eventually, for school-based teams. We welcome community members with all skillsets, even if you only know a little bit about the sport. We are investing in our coaches by paying for coaching certificates through USA Ultimate.
We are looking for volunteers to help captain teams in our adult leagues. Captains help welcome and teach newer players, ensure safe play, and promote inclusive values in all interactions. Captains should have great spirit to make playing in our leagues fun and inclusive! We often have leadership opportunities for new league coordinators, volunteers for events, or captains for tournaments. If there's something you want to participate in, consider volunteering for a leadership position to help make it happen.
Each fall season, Ultimate Frisbee Olympia organizes a canned food drive and volunteer event in partnership with the Thurston County Food Bank. In Fall of 2025, we had 31 volunteers from our community prepare food packages for distribution. Our next canned food drive will be scheduled for Fall of 2026.
