Overview

Mission

Usq advances the sport by organizing events and programs that build community and empower all genders to compete together.

What it reported doing in 2024

Membership services - the membership program provides memberships to teams and individuals that allow them to compete in sanctioned events, receive accidental insurance coverage while playing, become eligible for grants, access player resources and training, join a broad player community, and have a voice in the future of the sport through opinion polls and surveys.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 96% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
