The Toronto Rush are a professional ultimate team based in Toronto, Ontario. The Rush compete in the Ultimate Frisbee Association (UFA) as a member of the East Division.
The Rush joined the UFA in the 2013 season – when it was originally branded as the American Ultimate Disc League – becoming the first Canadian team in the league. They played their home games at Varsity Stadium and went undefeated that year, continuing their streak into the playoffs to take home the 2013 UFA Championship in their introductory season.
The Rush franchise has been consistent.[citation needed] The Rush won five consecutive East Division titles and have made three appearances in the League Championship Finals, including one UFA title in 2013.[1]
The team relocated their home games to Monarch Park Stadium for the 2018 season, before moving back to Varsity Stadium.[2]
Robert Lloyd is the chairman of the Rush. For the 2023 season, their head coach is Adrian Yearwood. Their assistant coaches are Micheal Kukucska and Rob Jankowski.
The team played the 1st half of their 2024 home schedule at Lamport Stadium while their regular home stadium Varsity Stadium was undergoing renovations.[3]
