Hi everyone, The first edition of Ultimate Delhi-ght was a great success, with teams from Bahrain and Dubai, along with several Indian teams, and many players from the US, EU and South East Asia.
It was also the first time that the swiss draw format was used in Asia, and turned out to be a great twist ensuring teams played close games where every point counts. All results, including SOTG rankings are published on our website ( http://delhiultimate.in/UD), as well as the news coverage related to the tourney (http://delhiultimate.in/media). And we've uploaded loads of pictures on FB (see links below). Cheers and CU next year!
