New Rules for Ultimate

The World Flying Disc Federation, ultimate frisbee’s international governing body, has issued a new set of rules. These will take effect from 1 January 2013.

This is the first update to the Rules of Ultimate in four years. WFDF made the announcement as well as providing resources to help learn and understand them.

Online sites, including UltiWorld, Skyd Magazine, and Force Sideline have added their opinion to the changes. WFDF Ultimate Committee Chairman Si Hill also gave a short interview to UltiWorld to discuss the changes.

As a player, it is your responsibility to know the rules and play by them. If you haven’t read the rules before you need to, and if you have it’s never a bad idea to have a refresh.
