Ultimate is friends. Tomodachi is so back. Coming to Europe.
Dear Ultimate friends,
From the parks of Melbourne to the canals of Amsterdam — Tomodachi Invite is an event like no other. It began last in 2024 with one simple idea: celebrate friendship through Ultimate.
This year, it’s back. This time in Amsterdam, on 22 July, in the lead-up to Windmill, we bring you a cultural exchange on the field:
Because Tomodachi Invite isn’t just about who scores more. It’s about sharing more. Learning more. Laughing more.
Throughout the match, players will swap sides. Dutch height will find itself part of Japanese lines. Tokyo speed will anchor in GRUT’s flow. And the score? Secondary.
What matters: ✴️ Cross-cultural connection ✴️ Unexpected chemistry ✴️ A shared love for Ultimate, beyond language or systems
Why we love Tomodachi
“When we think about the fun of ultimate, we think that one of the biggest attractions is the connections with overseas countries.”
We couldn’t agree more.
Tomodachi means friend or friends in Japanese. And this game is a celebration of Ultimate as a tool — for growth, for travel, for perspective, for community.
Wherever you are in the world, we hope you’ll tune in. This is one of those matches you’ll want to watch with your heart wide open.
