The Ultimini is the annual American football game that determines the champion of the Developmental Simulation Football League (DSFL). The game culminates a Developmental Simulation Football League regular season that begins in the previous calendar year and is the conclusion of the DSFL playoffs. The contest is held in the city of the home team. Since January 2018, the winner of the Southern Football Conference (SFC) Championship Game has faced the winner of the Northern Football Conference (NFC) Championship Game in the culmination of the Developmental Simulation Football League playoffs.

The SFC leads in Ultimini wins with 30, while the NFC has won 16. Eight franchises have won the Ultimini.

The Tijuana Luchadores (13-9) have won the most Ultiminis with thirteen championships. The Bondi Beach Buccaneers (8-1) and the Portland Pythons (8-13) are second with eight wins. The Minnesota Grey Ducks (formerly the San Antonio Marshals) (6-8) are fourth. The Norfolk Seawolves (5-4) have 5 wins, the Dallas Birddogs (4–0) have four wins, the Kansas City Coyotes (3–10) have three wins, and the London Royals (2–3) have two wins.

Tijuana has the most Ultimini appearances with twenty two. Tijuana has the most consecutive appearances with five from 2022 to 2026. The Portland Pythons (8-13) have lost a record thirteen Ultiminis.

The Palm Beach Solar Bears (2-0) were undefeated in title appearances and the Dallas Birddogs (4-0) are the only active undefeated team in the Ultimini. The record for consecutive wins is three and is held by the Tijuana Luchadores (2023–2025). The largest margin of victory was achieved by the Minnesota Grey Ducks with 40 points in the 2045 against Tijuana. This game was the first shutout in Ultimini Bowl history.

Due to Division Re-alignment between Norfolk and Minnesota, the total conference wins for the SFC and NFC slightly misalign with the record for the teams as they are now. Although Minnesota is currently has 6 Ultimini wins, only 4 count towards the North win total. The same goes for the Norfolk Seawolves, whose 6 wins only count as 5 towards the South.
