How to Play Ultimate

Ultimate (often called Ultimate Frisbee in reference to the trademarked brand name) is a non-contact team sport played with a 175 gram flying disc. The object of the sport is to score points by passing the disc to a player in the opposing end zone, similar to an end zone in American football or rugby. Players may not run while holding the ultimate disc. Ultimate is distinguished by its spirit of the game—the principles of fair play, sportsmanship, and the joy of play. Ultimate is a very fast pased game that definently requires endurance. Each team has seven players, the disc may only be advanced by completing passes to other teammates. There is no limit to the number of passes that can be thrown, the disc can be passes forward or backwards, and possession it maintained as long as the disc is in the air and not intercepted by the opposition. If the team with the disc drops it or has it batted down, it is an immediate change of possession and directional play. The game begins with a "pull" ( a player throws the disc off to the other team, much like the kickoff in American Football ) and after each score, teams switch ends and the scoring team throws off to the other team. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultimate_(sport)
