ABOUT US
Vortex strives to find the perfect combination of competition, fun, community, grit and love of each other and the game. We compete at the Division III level and have been extremely successful the past several years, winning the DIII title in 2018 and placing 3rd in 2019 and 2022. Vortex practices as a team 3 times a week and lifts twice a week outside of practice. Vortexers are involved in many activities across campus, but our team is a priority for all of us and we give 100% at practices and tournaments. We are committed to making Vortex a team in which everyone feels comfortable and welcome and we make sure finances are never an obstacle to anyone participating. St. Olaf has a women’s B team as well, Tempest, and we love to socialize with the entire Ultimate program. We have two incredible coaches, Sylvie and Elise, who attend practice and travel to tournaments with us. Some Vortex players come in with high school and YCC experience while many have never thrown a frisbee before but bring their skills from soccer, volleyball, track etc to the field. Vortex is more than a competitive ultimate team, we’re a support system, a community, and according to a player's grandma “a gift”, and we’d love for you to join us!
