The Spirit of Ultimate: Rules, Gameplay, and Sportsmanship

Ultimate is a non-contact sport played with a flying disc, emphasizing the spirit of the game, which involves fair play and self-officiating. Players call their own fouls and resolve disputes, with observers present in competitive settings. The game is played by passing the disc to teammates to score in the opposing end zone. Players cannot move while holding the disc, and turnovers occur when the disc is dropped or intercepted. Defensive players can only intercept or block the disc in the air. The game flow involves scoring points and starting new rounds with a 'poll'.
