Ultimate -

Ultimate is the name of the sport. You may also hear it called Ultimate Frisbee or flatball

Disc -

The disc is often called a Frisbee, but the official term is a disc.

Layout -

Laying out is when a player dives to catch the disc. It looks epic and is fun. Layout or stay out.

"The Greatest" -

When someone says "the greatest" it refers to a play in which an offensive player jumps out of bounds with out touching the ground and tosses the disc back in bounds before it touches the ground for a teammate to catch. The most epic play in Ultimate.

Handler -

One of the two main offensive positions in ultimate. The handler is the player who is the best thrower and throws the disc the most

Cutter -

The other main offensive position. The cutters cut around the field and try to get open for the handler to pass to

The Mark -

The mark is the player who is guarding the player with the disc. Holding a tight mark is when the mark does very well and doesn't allow the handler to throw the disc.

Callahan -

Another very difficult play in ultimate. It is when a defending player intercepts a disc inside the end zone, scoring for his team.

Contest -

When a player commits a foul, another player on the opposing team can call "contest" to expose that foul.

Cup -

An essential part to any zone defense. It is when you have multiple defenders on the handler, making it very hard to throw.
