• Soft Cap is 75 minutes from the start of the round. The winning team has to score the last point.
• At the time of soft cap, finish the current point, then add one to the higher score and play to that. Waiting to pull the disc or waiting during halftime is part of the current point. If one team scores to 13 at the time of soft cap, the game is over.

Other Important Details

Gender Ratio Rules

Captains will be provided with a guideline for gender ratios at the start of the league. In all discussions regarding gender ratios, please involve all women on both teams in the process. At no point may a team play with 7 men on the line. Be respectful in gender ratio discussions. Do not force an opposing team to play a man down all game to favor your own team to win. Winning is a bonus to playing league, not the only goal.

Other Odds and Ends:

• “Check feet” is not a legal call. If you think a player is out of bounds actively call them “out”. Not “I think you’re out” or “you might be out,” but “you are out”. After play has stopped, the discussion is about which player has best perspective and if the player was actually in or out of bounds. Generally, the player catching the disc does not always have the best perspective.

  • You can take back your “out” call if you find they were actually inbounds during the discussion. “My bad, you were actually in.”
  • Realize that there are always different perspectives to every situation, and everyone’s judgment is clouded somewhat by the outcomes they desire.

After a call is made BE CALM

• Breathe don’t react straight away
• Explain what you think happened
• Consider what they think happened
• Ask other players for advice (on perspective and rules) if needed
• Listen to what everyone involved has had to say
• Make a call loudly and clear (and use hand signals)
• For the full set of ultimate rules refer to the USA Ultimate 2020-2021 Ruleset
• Dangerous Play: Reckless disregard for the safety of fellow players is considered dangerous play and is to be treated as a foul, regardless of whether or when contact occurs. This rule is not superseded by any other rule. If uncontested, this must be treated as the most relevant foul.
