The 2016 American Ultimate Disc League season is the fifth season for the league. The twenty-six teams were split into four regional divisions (East, Midwest, West and South), with each team playing a 14-game schedule. The second and third placed teams in each division advanced to a playoff match, with the winners facing the first placed team in their division. The winners of these matches advanced to the AUDL Championship Weekend, which featured semifinals and then a final for the AUDL Championship. Dallas Roughnecks defeated Seattle Cascades 33–27 in the final to become the 2016 AUDL Champions.
