Comparison: WUCC 2018 Seed vs Finish for US Club Teams

Club ultimate teams from the US swept gold at WFDF 2018 World Ultimate Club Championships - similar to past WUCC events hosted in the United States. All U.S. club teams advanced to their division's quarterfinals at WUCC 2018. All US-based club teams combined for an impressive (109-13) win-loss record at WUCC 2018.



Overall, 9 medals were won by U.S. club teams. U.S. mixed teams won a record 4 competition medals, U.S. women's teams won 3 medals, and U.S. men's teams won 2 medals. More bronze medals were won at WUCC 2018 than previous WUCC events due to inclement weather preventing placement games in the final rounds.
