The Philadelphia Area Disc Alliance was founded in 1985 to facilitate area Ultimate Clubs, Free-style and Disc Golf, and to introduce a summer co-ed Ultimate league. While PADA continues to support all things disc - Philadelphia still boasts the second oldest disc golf course in the country - there is no doubt that the success of our leagues and community programs has channeled much of our energy into the sport of Ultimate. PADA, the Philadelphia Area Disc Alliance provides opportunities to learn, teach, and play Ultimate while fostering community, character and competition within the greater Philadelphia region. PADA offers a variety of opportunities for people of all lifestyles and demographics to play Ultimate. Adult leagues exist all over the Philadelphia area, from Center City to Delaware, from Chester County to South Jersey. PHUEL, our high-school league, provides opportunities for hundreds of young students to play ultimate. Our Youth Outreach (YO) Program brings Ultimate to lesser privileged children in Philadelphia. PADA runs weekend tournaments, for both teams and pick-up individuals, all year round. And our forum and email lists help facilitate spontaneous pick-up for those who can't get enough!
