Wind Chill x Wanta Thome: Partnership Announcement

Wanta Thome Back as the Official Employment Law Firm of the Minnesota Wind Chill Through 2027

The Minnesota Wind Chill are excited to announce a renewed partnership with Wanta Thome, continuing their support of the team for the upcoming 2026 and 2027 UFA Seasons.

Wanta Thome’s partnership with the Wind Chill is built on shared values of integrity, accountability, and doing things the right way. As a plaintiff-side employment law firm, Wanta Thome is dedicated to standing up for workers and advocating for fairness, principles that align closely with ultimate frisbee’s self-officiated nature and the Wind Chill’s commitment to the Spirit of the Game.

“We represent Minnesota workers, and we believe in showing up for Minnesota communities. The Wind Chill bring people together around something special: a sport built on mutual respect and fair play. That's the kind of culture we want to see in every workplace, and we're honored to be part of growing this game and this community right here at home,” said Shawn J. Wanta, Managing Member at Wanta Thome.

“Wanta Thome has been an outstanding partner because they genuinely believe in what this sport represents,” said Dylan DeClerck, Director of Partnerships for the Minnesota Wind Chill. “Their focus on integrity and fairness mirrors how our players compete and how our organization operates, both on and off the field.”

Through this partnership, Wanta Thome will continue to engage with Wind Chill fans throughout the season and support the team’s mission of growing ultimate frisbee in Minnesota while promoting values that extend beyond competition.

The Minnesota Wind Chill open their 2026 campaign this May, with Wanta Thome as the presenting sponsor of the July 11th game against the Boston Glory. Wanta Thome will also be the presenting sponsor of Chilly’s Kid’s Club, a soon-to-be-launched membership program for Wind Chill fans ages 10 and under. Members will receive exclusive swag, discounts on youth merchandise, and an invite to the Kids Club Open Practice this April, where members will have an early opportunity to meet and interact with Chilly and the 2026 Wind Chill team.
