Twenty years ago, Michelle Ng took a hard look at the state of college women’s ultimate and made it her mission to change the ways in which college women’s division was organized, managed, and presented. She set out to advance the division by making it more professional, more accessible, and more fun. Michelle was committed to elevating inclusion, broad participation, and ongoing training as cornerstones of her growth strategies. Since 2005, Michelle has organized over 130 tournaments and clinics. She founded tournaments like Midwest Throwdown and Commonwealth Cup, mentored countless college players, and trained college teams to run their own tournaments. Michelle worked tirelessly to create divisions to suit all levels of play, and when possible, offered clinics for tournament players taught by local elite players. In 2010, she founded Without Limits, an organization dedicated to fostering relationships and promoting growth within the women’s ultimate community. Her efforts have led to the creation of essential resources, such as the College Women’s Division and Girls’ High School Ultimate Resources Manuals.
