It summer, it’s hot, and you’ve got a generic-brand flying disc. Time for some Ultimate.
You Will Need
- 14 players
- A flying disc
- A playing field
Step 1: Make teams and rules
Divide into two teams of seven and decide what score to play to, typically 15 or 21.
Step 2: Mark end zones and side lines
Mark off end zones and side lines with cones, or, in a pinch, T-shirts.
A regulation field is 70 yards by 40 yards, with end zones 25 yards deep.
Step 3: Line up on your endzone
Line your team up on your endzone line and have the other team do the same.
Step 4: Begin play
Begin play by having one team throw the disc down the field to the other team, similar to a kickoff in American football.
Step 5: Pass
The team controlling the disc must try to pass it from member to member down the field toward the opponent’s end zone.
Step 6: Score when complete in endzone
Add a point to your team’s score when you complete a pass in your opponent’s endzone.
Step 7: Kick off after scoring
The scoring team kicks off after each point.
A player has ten seconds to throw the disc, and may not run with the disc.
Step 8: Control changes to other team
When a pass is incomplete, out of bounds, held for too long or intercepted, control changes to the other team.
Step 9: Substitutes enter game
Substitutes may enter the game only after a score or in the event of an injury.
Step 10: Contact is not allowed between players
Contact is not allowed between players.
Students at Columbia High School in Maplewood, New Jersey, are credited with creating the first version of Ultimate back in 1968.
