WFDF Rule Book-Ultimate Frisbee Rule Clarification

Introduction to WFDF Rule Book

The WFDF Rule Book is designed to provide a comprehensive set of rules for the sport of Ultimate, a team game played with a flying disc. Ultimate combines elements of soccer, basketball, and American football into a fast-paced, non-contact team sport that is self-officiated and emphasizes sportsmanship through the 'Spirit of the Game.' The primary objective is to score points by catching the disc in the opposing team's end zone. The WFDF Rule Book covers all aspects of play, from the basic structure of the game, equipment specifications, and field setup to detailed rules governing play, fouls, turnovers, and scoring. It also emphasizes the unique aspect of Ultimate: it is self-officiated, relying on the integrity of players to abide by the rules and resolve disputes on the field. For example, if a player catches the disc in bounds but is unsure if they were in or out of the end zone when the catch was made, they would discuss the call with the opposing player closest to the play, referring to the rule book's guidelines for making a call in such situations.
