Secretary: TBA Noemi Hollander (she/her/hers) Noemi’s first real game of ultimate frisbee ended with bed rest and preterm labor. Today, she is primarily a spectator and cowbell ringer but is learning with the Mother Huckers as a practice player. Her son (who was born safely a few weeks later) would pick the disc back up a decade or so later and go on to play for Kore, EC-HUC, and Aftershock. Her daughter joined in the fun both as a player and a coach (Belly of the Beast) and has competed on EC-HUC, GO (State Champs!), Cali Roll, California Current, and is currently playing on Clearcut after winning both gold and spirit with Team USA (Mixed) at the World Junior Ultimate Championships. Outside of frisbee, Noemi enjoys music, writing, and foraging for wild mushrooms. She volunteers for a few different educational organizations and her business card reads “Change Accelerator.” Puma joined the Cali Roll coaching team in 2017 and is one of BUYA’s founding members. After a collegiate track career, she began playing ultimate frisbee while living and teaching in the Dominican Republic. Puma moved to the Bay Area to attend graduate school, where she won a college national championship as a member of Stanford Superfly. She currently plays on Nightlock in the Women’s Club Division, and has also played on Polar Bears and LOL. Outside of ultimate frisbee, Puma works in K-12 education finance and administration. She is an avid soccer fan. She enjoys traveling, reading, and hanging out with her cat. Treasurer: Anne Marie 'Puma' Gordon (she/her/hers) Abby Williams (she/her/hers) Abby was exposed to ultimate in high school (back in the very early ‘80s!) but doesn’t have any memory of it. She does remember being introduced to ultimate and playing in the WAFC league in Washington, DC in the 1990s. After moving to California she joined a pick up game and the rest is history. Abby has since played in various BADA leagues over the years and is a member of the Mother Huckers. Her 16-year-old daughter plays on her high school team and with Belly of the Beast (BUYA’s U17 girls team) WHICH WON THEIR DIVISION AT YCCS IN 2024!!!!

- Remembering Efe & Aidan | Bay Ultimate Youth
Remembering Efe & Adian Why do we wear the numbers 10 and 47 on our jersey sleeves? The numbers pay tribute to two young YCC players from the Bay Area who passed away and whose team spirit and camaraderie will be remembered. Donate Efejon Ustenci #10 August 3, 1998 - June 22, 2016 Berkeley High School Class of 2016 YCC teams: Aftershock, Red Dawn Efejon, affectionately known as “Efe,” was a team leader, friend, and mentor. He was an astounding athlete, playing both rugby and Ultimate in high school. Efe was a player who wore his emotions proudly, and was an intense and inspiring young man. Efe celebrated great plays, both his teammates' and his own, he would cry in the face of difficult defeats, and he was unafraid to call out his teammates and demand from them the work ethic and integrity that he exemplified. Efe was also the first to congratulate an opponent on exceptional play, was a player who always listened to and acted upon advice from any source, and was among the first to notice a shy freshman who needed a throwing buddy and make a new friend. Efe embodied Spirit of the Game. Efe’s compassion and enthusiasm for Ultimate are with us on the field in every game. Donations to assist players traveling to YCC can be made in Efe’s honor at: https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/fundraising/8a46fe8c-1a68-4a3e-8e48-9f280c2a2dce Aidan Price #47 July 7, 2001- June 20, 2021 Berkeley High School Class of 2019, Carleton College Ultimate Team (CUT) YCC: Aftershock (2016, 2017) , Red Dawn (2018, 2019) Club: Gold Rush (2018-2019), Oak (2018) Price leading Red Dawn cheer - https://youtu.be/c_82UwqKqzQ Aidan was the heart of every team he played on. He mastered long beautiful angular forehand hucks over a lifetime of throwing a disc - starting on the sidelines of his parents' games as a toddler. Aidan’s calm, steady presence, love of strategy, and ability to see the whole field made him a natural center handler. But his real gift was his unbreakable commitment to his teammates and spirit of the game. Aidan knew just when to pump up the team with wild and wacky (and loud) cheers and when to envelope someone in a massive bear hug. His confidence, love, and enthusiasm made you believe in yourself. His unlikely combination of creative fun and focused commitment helped his teammates achieve incredible success together, win or lose. Aidan’s love and spirit of the game are with all of us on the line, every point we play.

DESIGN OUR 2022 YCC UNIFORMS! Calling all creative minds: we are on the lookout for the best jersey designs for our 2022 Youth Club Championship teams! Do you think you could create the winning design? BUYA, in partnership with Boon Technical Clothing , want you to help us come up with the best looking jerseys at the tournament. Our teams need both a dark and a light jersey; while we'll consider designs for just a single item, it would be better to submit a full coordinated kit! Once we've received submissions, BUYA will select a set of finalist designs, then the community will vote to decide what our YCC contingent will wear as they head to Minnesota in search of a national title this summer!
