What is ultimate frisbee?
Ultimate frisbee is a sport that combines the field layout of football,
with the footwork of basketball, and the cutting patterns of lacrosse.
This sport requires a lot of running, quick feet, creativity, and
adapting to the wind patterns. The game starts with a pull to the
offensive team, who then tries to work the disc down the field using
different offensive styles while the defense tries to cause a turnover
through forcing the incompletion of a pass. Ultimate frisbee is not a
very mainstream sport and often attracts interesting characters who may
not have fit into the culture of other sports. At ultimate tournaments,
one can often hear odd chants and crazy costumes. At the end of
tournament days, teams often have a spirit circle in which the team sits
in a circle and talks about each teammate and what they did well that
day. After everyone has been discussed, teammates are nominated for
different awards such as defense and, for moxie, the stego for being the
most moxie.
