Ultimate Without Borders Story 

Picture
Co-founders Ben Searle (Panama 2008-2011) and Dai Lin (Azerbaijan 2010-2012) are former Peace Corps volunteers and passionate Ultimate Frisbee players. Ben toured Panama with flying discs and used the Strength-Based Approach to create a 6-hour leadership workshop, which he facilitated for more than 600 youth in his final year of service. During her service, Dai founded the Azerbaijan Ultimate Frisbee League and trained over 20 PCVs to use ultimate with their communities. AUFL had more than 200 youth and 8 tournaments in its inaugural Fall 2012 season. Both projects are currently active and growing in Panama and Azerbaijan. 

Similarly, Ben and Dai wanted their contribution to continue growing even after their Peace Corps service. Their passion and commitment planted the seed for Ultimate Without Borders.
