Bill Beckman Memorial
April 18th in Marquette, MI
The 3rd iteration of this season-opening event will once again honor the late, great Bill Beckman, while also providing a fun tune up tournament before the Majors. Taking place at the world's largest wooden dome on the campus of Northern Michigan University, players sign up either solo or with a partner and then the tournament committee assigns teammates. The goal is to have evenly matched teams compete in this one-day event, giving every player a shot at playing in a tournament finals match. Registration will begin March (pay attention to this site and our socials) for your first chance at a trophy in 2026.
Global Guts Weekend
May 30th & 31st Everywhere
Once again USA Guts is proud to promote a weekend of casual Guts around the globe. This is your chance to get together with your local Guts club and to compete in an afternoon of Guts just for the fun of it. Make sure to post some pictures and tag "@usaguts" on socials to plant your flag on the global Guts map.
Wisconsin Guts Championships (WGC)
June 13th & 14th in Neenah, WI
The WGC is the first of the four USA Guts Majors. Here you'll see the best teams that each region has to offer, competing for momentum to begin the season and a Major win for the recordbook. Shottle Bop is currently the three-time defending champions of the WGC and in 2026 they look surpass the 2007-2009 Booomtown Saints and become the first team to win four consecutive titles in Wisco.
The 68th Coca-Cola International Frisbee Tournament (IFT)
July 11th & 12th in Hancock, MI
The grand daddy of them all. The original Frisbee tournament. The most historic event in disc sports goes by just three letters ... IFT.
Played since 1957, the IFT is the event that creates Guts legacies, where the winning team will drink out of the Julius T. Nachazel Cup. Each squad will arrive to Hancock in full force for the opportunity to become a Guts legend. Once again, Shottle Bop is the defending champions, but this event has featured three different winners in the last three years, which is proof that anything can happen. Most prognosticators are predicting Whiskey Disc, U.P. Hardwood, Monte Carlo, the Boomtown Saints, and Shottle Bop to be the teams left to duke it out on Sunday afternoon, but stranger things have happened on this hallowed ground. Whatever the result - it will be historic.
The U.S. Nationals
April 1st & 2nd in Marqutte, MI
Get ready for a newly expanded field at Tourist Park, where we'll have more fields to play on and the largest field of teams in modern Guts history. The U.S. Nationals event continues to grow and Marquette continues to stake its claim as the epicenter of Guts.
Recent US Nationals champs have featured hometown heroes Wolfpack in 2024 and last year Whiskey Disc earning the Buck Buchanan Memorial trophy. So in 2026, Sunday afternoon will likely be another Marquette Guts Club bloodbath between friends and rivals, producing some of the best Guts of the season.
United States Guts Open (USGO)
September 5th & 6th in Lansing, MI
The hosts of USGO refuse to be beat. They haven't lost in their hometown since the Tews brothers paid them a visit in '23. Since then, the Boomtown Saints have claimed two consecutive Majors in Lansing while clearly not being the most talented team in the field. But the hunger, drive, and determination that has brought them so many Majors in the last two decades is still there, despite their advanced age.
