It depends on what information you are trying to convey in your diagram. However you could:

  1. Attach a stereotype to your relationship
  2. Use an association class
  3. Use a Ternary association
  4. Decide the collection type is an implementation detail and not show it
  5. Discover some additional behaviours about the association and promote
