The UW-L Women’s Ultimate Frisbee Team! What is Ultimate Frisbee? 
The
sport of Ultimate is a game of agility,
skill, speed, and luck. It is a sport,
which combines the best elements of
soccer, basketball, and American
football into one very intense
experience. Here's what
USA Ultimate has
to say about the sport, "Combining
the non-stop movement and athletic
endurance of
soccer with the aerial passing skills of
football, a game of Ultimate is played
by two seven-player squads with a
high-tech plastic disc on a field
similar to football. The object of the
game is to score by catching a pass in
the opponent’s end zone. A player must
stop running while in possession of the
disc, but may pivot and pass to any of
the other receivers on the field.
Ultimate is a transition game in which
players move quickly from offense to
defense on turnovers that occur with a
dropped pass, an interception, a pass
out of bounds, or when a player is
caught holding the disc for more than
ten seconds. Ultimate is governed by
Spirit of the Game™, a tradition of
sportsmanship that places the
responsibility for fair play on the
players rather than referees. Ultimate
is played in more than 42 countries by
hundreds of thousands of men and women,
girls and boys."
