Ultimate Frisbee Rules
 
1.                  The field of play is rectangular with two end zones approximately 25 yards deep.
 
2.                  Each point begins with both teams lining up behind their respective end zone. The game begins with the defense throwing the Frisbee to their opponent. 
 
3.                  Teams will consist of 4-6 players per side.
 
4.                  In order to score, the offense must complete a pass in the defense’s end zone. Each time this pass is completed, the offensive team will be awarded one point.
 
5.                  The first team to compile fifteen points wins the game.
 
6.                  Possession changes after each score.
 
7.                  The Frisbee may be passed in any direction from teammate to teammate. Players may not run with the Frisbee. In order to release the Frisbee, the player may take up to three steps. The person with the Frisbee has ten seconds to release it. 
 
8.                  When a pass is not completed (e.g. out of bounds, dropped, blocked, intercepted), the defense immediately takes possession of the Frisbee and begins the offense.
 
9.                  Substitutions may only occur after a score or during an injury.
 
10.              No physical contact is permitted between players. This includes setting screens. If contact occurs, the official will call a foul and change possession.
