After a year absence, UTS returned in July 2023 with the fifth edition of the tournament, known as UTS Los Angeles. UTS 5 was held in Los Angeles at the Dignity Health Sports Park between 21 July and 23 July, and was the first edition to be staged outside of Europe. It was the first tournament in a series of three events leading up to the "Grand Final" in December 2023.[1]
