Team sport7 aside

A team could consist of as many players as the team has. An average squad size would be 18-20 players. Ultimate Frisbee could be played on grass fields or on the beach. The games played most commonly are the 7 on 7 format on grass. However, most beach ultimate games are played 5 on 5 on a slightly smaller field.

RECOGNITION

Unlike most sports, Ultimate Frisbee focuses on self-officiating, even at the highest levels of competition. The World Flying Disc Federation (WFDF) has been granted full recognition by the International Olympics Committee, making Ultimate the only sport recognized to be self-officiating, promoting Spirit Of The Game (SOTG) at the Olympics level.​

The disc is progressed by catching and passing it to a teammate. Players cannot run with the disc. A team scores a goal if one of their players catches the disc in the opponent’s end zone.
