| Game Rules: |
- The field of play is a standard basketball court
- Games are played with a regulation game "disc" (i.e. a frisbee)
- The end zone is marked by the straight lines of the basketball keyhole
- The captains flip at the start of the game to determine who gets to throw or receive the disc first
- There must be four payers on the court from each team at any time
- When a player gains possession of the disc they must come to a stop
- They must then establish a pivot foot and may not move that foot until they have thrown the disc (the same stepping rules as in netball apply)
- A player catches the disc inside the end zone to score a point
- There it a set amount of time you can hold onto the disc. The defending player approaches the player with the disc and says “stalling 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 stall” if the defending gets to 7 it is a turn over. If the player with the disc throws the counting stops.
