STRATEGIC PLANNING
2026-35
Building Our Next Decade Together
US Quadball has launched a strategic planning process to chart the future of our league from 2026 through 2035. This plan will define our long-term goals, growth priorities, and the investments needed to build a stronger, more sustainable quadball ecosystem.
The process is guided by input from across our community—players, volunteers, officials, donors, staff, and fans. It focuses on what matters most: growing participation at all levels, strengthening our collegiate foundation, building sustainable club programs, and creating more accessible and financially resilient pathways into the sport.
This page will serve as the central hub for updates, ways to get involved, and key milestones as the plan takes shape.
