The 2017 American Ultimate Disc League season was the sixth season for the league. The San Francisco FlameThrowers won the championship, the team's first title.[1] The league featured twenty-four teams in four divisions, and for the first time, teams played interdivisional games. Eleven Sports Network joined the league as a broadcast partner for the first time, broadcasting a limited slate of games.[2]
For the first time in the AUDL, cross-divisional games were held, counting towards the team's regular season record. Only the top two teams from each division in 2016 were involved in Cross Coast Challenge matches.[3]
