COVID-19 INFORMATION
Over the past 18 months, the effects of the Covid-19 Pandemic have created uncertainty about hosting sports
events and created travel restrictions globally. The WFDF Covid-19 Working Group will continue to monitor the
situation and will work with the LOC to ensure that national and local governmental and health agency advice and
criteria are met in full.
Every team registering and planning to attend WUCC, must make specific inquiries about cross border travel and
fully comply with any restrictions or requirements that are in place to enter the USA.
WFDF will provide countermeasures to keep WUCC participants, staff and volunteers informed and safe while at
the event and we will fully rely on your support to comply with the event COVID-19 requirements. Despite all care
taken, risks and impacts may not be fully eliminated and therefore teams agree to attend WUCC 2022 at their own
risk.
Travel Insurance:
All event participants (athletes, coaches and team support) are recommended to obtain travel insurance prior to
booking flights and health insurance before leaving your home country.
The US healthcare system is based on individuals carrying personal insurance. WFDF and the WUCC LOC does
not provide coverage for participants outside of the general first aid administered at the fields. There are always
risks associated with playing Ultimate. Although WUCC will have medical staff on site to deal with first aid and
assess critical injuries, there may be injuries or illness in which players need medical attention that requires
emergency visits to local hospitals.
WFDF and the LOC kindly request that all players and event participants acknowledge these risks and understand
that WFDF and the LOC cannot be held liable for any risk or cost associated with injury or bad health at WUCC.
All event participants should alleviate some personal financial liability by purchasing your own travel and health
insurance to make sure you are covered for any medical issues or event cancellations that could arise.
