What is Ultimate Frisbee?

Ultimate Frisbee is a sport that incorporates the running of soccer, the scores and cuts from football, and some strategies of basketball. It is played on a field about the size of a soccer or football field and two teams play each other in a game. Each team has 7 players on the field. The object of the game is to score in the other team's endzone (like in football) by passing the disc to your teammates up the field. Ultimate is played around the idea of the "spirit of the game" where all officiating is done by the team. In other words, there are no referees. There are, however, rules that the sport is governed by and they can be found in detail at the Ultimate Players Association (UPA) website. Remember, NO EXPERIENCE IS NECESSARY TO PLAY AND ALL ARE WELCOME.
