Venue
The EUF 2023 European Ultimate Championships is taking place across the North and South campus field sites of the University of Limerick (UL).
UL is Ireland’s sporting campus and a perfect location for the event with fields, facilities, accommodation and restaurants all wrapped up into one Olympic Village like setting. We have built a fantastic relationship with the UL Sport team through years of playing Ultimate and organising tournaments on campus such as the WFDF 2022 World Masters Ultimate Club Championships and The Siege of Limerick. The University is excited to welcome the Ultimate Community back once again.
A mixture of high quality grass and 3G pitches will provide athletes with fantastic fields of play. The two sites are located at either end of the University campus approximately 20 minutes walk from each other. It is a tightly packed campus designed for students to be able to walk anywhere with food and other facilities being made available onsite for athletes for the duration of the event.

FOOD
On-site catering will be available through several high quality restaurants on the University campus. There will be options to opt-in for pre-paid week-long meal plans for breakfast and dinner or there will be options to buy what you need at the venue to get you through the day (e.g. pay-as-you-go meal service).
No meals are automatically included with official on-campus accommodation. These will be separate bookings and separate costs.
For those who pre-booked meal plans, this will be noted on your accreditation which will indicate which plan you purchased (Breakfast Only / Dinner Only / Breakfast + Dinner) and have a punchable hole for each day. If you flagged dietary requirements on your team order form, the University catering team have been informer and you can make them aware of this during meal services to ensure the restaurant provides you with the correct meal type.
The meal plan offers 7 of each meal type purchase and will be redeemable on the below dates and service times:
- Breakfast: 06:30 – 09:30, Sunday 16th July – Saturday 22nd July
- Dinner: 17:00 – 20:30, Saturday 15th July – Friday 21st July
All pre-booked meal plans will be served from The Stables [map ref. D] on the UL campus. Depending on demand, an additional restaurant may be used for the pre-booked meal plans to ensure efficiency of service. No gear bags will be allowed into The Stables during meal service or evening social event times. Please drop your gear bags at your accommodation before coming for your meals.
Players must keep your accreditation with you at all times. Lost meal cards will not be replaced nor missed services refunded as a result of the loss. Meal cards have a specific punchable hole for each day, i.e. ‘16 June – Breakfast’. Please be sure to use the correct day for each meal otherwise service will be refused.
