Ultimate Frisbee - A Young Sport

Ultimate Frisbee, or just "Ultimate", is a pretty young sport - 21 years old - which explains why it hasn't caught on like soccer or basketball yet.

Some quotes on the game:

..the team sport of the future, combining the running of soccer with the stamina of hockey and the cutting, jumping and passing of basketball...
Singapore Ultimate

How the game is played:

A player may not "RUN WITH THE DISC" This is called a TRAVEL and is a VIOLATION ( not a Turnover).When a Travel occurs, the defender should call "Travel," play stops and the Violating player returns to the proper spot. After a CHECK of the Disc the Violating player may resume play by attempting a pass.
