About Ultimate
Ultimate Frisbee (actually, just Ultimate. FrisbeeŽ is a
licensed trademark of the WhammoŽ corporation.) is a fast paced
sport that is played with a disc and two teams with seven players on
each team.Ultimate can be just a leisurely day in the park, or an all
day, all out, in-your-face, sprint marathon. At the higher levels,
Ultimate has been shown to be the most aerobic sport you can play.
It's this intensity that I love. If you don't like to get horizontal
(and I'm not talking about sex), then Ultimate is not for you.
Generally, Ultimate is played with a Discraft UltraStar 175
gram disc.This is slightly heavier than discs you may be accustomed
to, but it has good control and cuts the wind better than lighter
discs. The field is similar to football field, only smaller. The
object of the game is to advance the disc to the endzone by passing
the disc. When a player catches the disc he/she must stop as soon as
possible. When the disc is caught in the endzone, one point is
awarded. When a specified number of points is reached, the game is
over.
There are no referees, although there are occasionally
impartial observers who can be called upon to rule in a dispute. This
self-officiation system is a great source of pride for Ultimate
players. Ultimate is to be played with sportsmanship which honors the
Spirit Of The Game(SOTG).
