I still have goosebumps when seeing this last catch <3

i think what's keeping this game from becoming super popular is all of the rules that are left up to judgement, or the fact that's lots of people realize how easy it is to cheat and make the game worse for everyone else.

This is very informative. But I think the game needs some rules change to make it professional and faster. Like.

They need to drop pass timer from ten seconds to 5.

If you can’t move with the frisbee. Players need to drop or roll after a running catch to prevent traveling calls. How is it I see players catching long throws and running several steps?

I've never heard of this but heard of somebody I know who plays it. Looked it up to learn about what they play.

This seems interesting but it boggles my mind that the game is self-officiating. Why aren't there field referees calling the game? As a basketball player, this seems crazy.

wow, this is nice. i’m sending this to my mom.

Disappointing that the information presented here is incomplete. No mention of other major organizations and events like WFDF, USA Ultimate, Triple Crown Tour + non-pro clubs, or even the fact that mixed-gender and women's teams exist. It's not surprising, given this video being produced for the AUDL, but this information should really be acknowledged somewhere in a video titled "What Is Ultimate Frisbee?"
Also, when is this league going to get over the whole frisbee vs. disc thing.
They need to rename to AUL imo.

The Championship should be called Frisbowl

Can a dog play if it identifies as a human?

You know it's bad when the world's biggest Ultimate league posts a whole video explaining what the sport is... This is so pathetic and frustrating
