What is Rat City?

Rat City is a mixed gender ultimate team based in the Baltimore area. It was founded in 2017 by people who saw the need for another space for players to grow and compete at a high level. The purpose of our team is to improve mixed ultimate in Baltimore while being the best teammates and opponents we can be, on and off the field. We take pride in representing Baltimore in the Mid-Atlantic mixed region, which is full of top-level talent and a strong social community

Why "Rat City"?

"Why Rat City?", you may ask. "Rats are gross!" you may say. While they may be gross, Baltimore (which is known to have many rats) is not. Rat City is a team that embraces everything Baltimore and the greater Baltimore region. Whether that is Ravens and O's, Utz and Bohs, crafty Art Scape nights, free concerts and neighborhood block parties, embracing summer swamp season, or just keeping life weird... we want people to know that we take pride in our city and everyone’s efforts to improve it.

We're taking back rats.

As a team, Rat City is committed to playing competitive ultimate while also engaging in conversation and action around race and gender equity in ultimate frisbee. We want all players to feel valued and able to succeed on the field and in general. Ask us about how we’re implementing an equity lens on and off the field.
