 Equity Statements

Picture
For our first statewide project GUPI worked with Minnesota club teams to draft and publish equity statements. We contacted every club team in Minnesota and worked with them to create an equity statement that would ensure equity within the team, commit to working with the Minnesota Ultimate community, and partner with GUPI to support, promote, and advocate for girls in Ultimate. 

The statements were created by each team as a public commitment to promoting equity and as a resource that they can use to grow and support their own community. 

This is a progressive step for Minnesota Ultimate.  Our state is the first to have a community of Ultimate players who have publicly committed to taking actions steps towards making this sport more inclusive and equitable. 

Use this page to read the equity statements of MN club teams, find resources for drafting your own statement and getting ideas for engaging your own ultimate community. ​

Mojo Jojo Equity Statement

Picture
"Mojo Jojo is a team continually striving to compete with the high level competition in the Midwest Ultimate community, along with maintaining the fun atmosphere we've come to know and love about the game of Ultimate. We have and will continue to improve as individuals and as a collective, and we will support each other to drive this team forward."

​Mojo Mojo Statement of Equity:

Mojo Jojo is made up of exceptional women and men in the Twin Cities and surrounding metro areas in Minnesota. We strive to clearly discuss and promote equity on the field, and to a larger extent off the field, by supporting, promoting, and working with other mixed, open, women’s, and youth teams. Mojo Jojo consists of many players who have developed through the youth programs in Minnesota, and many of our players currently coach and work with youth. As result, we hold ourselves to the highest standard when it comes to our position as role models for the spirited sport of Ultimate Frisbee, and we aim to have clean, spirited, friendly games when we compete within our region and as ambassadors outside of our region. We make strides to ensure that our team hears and utilizes the voices of both female and male players, captains, and friends, and we believe that our democratic mindset has helped us bring fierce competition to our region.
