The treasurer keeps track of the inflows and outflows of the organization. Its a vital role to keep CUPA afloat and in the green as well as reporting at the CUPA board meeting so that everyone is kept up-to-date on the financial status.

Scott Levinson

Field Supply Manager

If you're cutting deep and looking for a full field huck then you're relying on the wrong person. However, if you're running a league or tournament and need cones, coolers, et cetera then don't look me off. As field supplies manager I'm available for anyone that needs anything from the CUPA storage locker: cones, coolers, field paint, the grill, hoses, air horns, food serving items, rulebooks, scoreboards, and anything else that might be hiding in the dark recesses of our quaint Mason storage locker.

I love the Cincinnati ultimate scene! I help coach MND/Moeller's HS ultimate team, play on Goose Lee (a Cincy Mixed team), and serve on the CUPA Women's Committee & Event Sanctioning Committee. I love to come to meetings and offer my opinions on CUPA matters, enjoy the free pizza, and catch up with the CUPA crew. I also serve as a sometimes Graphic Designer for CUPA and any of its needs.

I have 8 years of ultimate experience. I began playing pickup in high school. In college at the Univeristy of Florida (Go Gators!) I began to play competitive Ultimate. At the University of Florida I was the president of the Men's Ultimate Club team for my Junior and Senior year. In 2014, I founded the annual youth tournament in Gainesville, Florida, Romp in the Swamp. I helped to organize and run youth clinics in Gainesville which resulted in the formation of the first-ever youth team in the area. I was a founder of the mixed team Gainesville G-Unit (now called Gainesville Weird) in 2016 where we placed 15th at Nationals in the first season as a team. In 2017 I moved to Cincinnati. I now assist in coaching Xavier University's Men's Team and partake in most leagues. I have played on 5 different club teams: 2014 Miami Cartel, 2015 Gainesville Vicious Cycle, 2016 Gainesville G-Unit, 2017 Cincinnati Goose Lee, and 2018 Cincinnati Steamboat.

I love the frisbee scene in Cincinnati!  I have been a part of multiple pick-up groups, participated in leagues, and play for local women's team Sureshot.

As a member of the Women's Committee I am passionate about spreading the message of ultimate frisbee to women and girls.  I do this by running Women's leagues in both the Spring and Fall.

My passion has and continues to be the development of our youth plyaers.  I head up our summer traveling team program which has grown to 5 teams and over 100 athletes and has won one national championship, 7 national runners up and 6 national spirit awards.  I am a former USAU state youth coordinator for Ohio and was national coordinator of the year in 2007.  In addition, I am a USAU coaching instructor and observer.  I have started leagues (HS summer and fall leagues, Columbus HS league, Cleveland HS league), teams (Lakota), after school programs, and tournaments (SCINNY).  I am currently the head coach of the UC men's team.  My goals on the board is to increase the number and quality of young players playing in Cincinnati and to provide the tools to our volunteer coaches to effectively teach our sport as well as the Spirit of the Game.

I've been playing ultimate for over 15 years and my involvement as an organizer with Cincinnati Ultimate started soon after that.  I am the League Director for two of our Summer Leagues, and all of our co-ed Spring and Fall leagues.  I have been coaching at Clark High School (go Spidermonkeys!) for 13 years. In the past, I've been Treasurer for the Board of Directors, and a League Director for YUC (our HS league).  I currently play with club teams Thunderpants the Magic Dragon and Age Against the Machine.  In 2017 my women's team, Sidearm, finished third at Nationals.  In the winter, I supplement my ultimate playing with broomball, my second favorite sport!
