Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee

Contact: info@cincinnatiultimate.org

Chair: Izzi Bikun, Secretary: Izzi Bikun

The Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Committee (DEI) was reformed (previously the Womxn's Committee*) to acknowledge our efforts to address race, gender, and socioeconomic status, and the intersections of these identities, in order to provide equitable opportunities and experiences for everyone in our area. 

*The "x" is used to be inclusive of non-binary and trans players as well as cisgender womxn. Check out this article for more info on that spelling shift.
