New to Ultimate?  Been awhile since you played?

Never played?
If you can run, you can play (running is kind of a prerequisite).  You'll start out running, catching and dumping it to the closest player, but over time, the throws will come.  We try to line up similarly sized/skilled/gendered players when on defense, so you're not overwhelmed by a really tall or fast person (unless you are tall and/or fast).

Basic rules are 7 on 7 on approximately a soccer field but with football endzones.  You can't run with the frisbee and you have 10 seconds to throw it to a teammate, who is running.  Catch it in the endzone and you get a point.  If the frisbee hits the ground, is caught by a defender, or goes out of bounds, it's a turnover and the other team takes the disc where it lands (or the closest in-bound spot).  No contact, no hitting the frisbee out of the hands, and happy spirits.
