Yeah, I went to visit a friend from Canada once and lots of people play it there. They have teams in their high school and stuff. Pretty cool.
I wanna try and get something going in my community |

It's pretty simple. Similar to football, there are two endzones.
The object of the game is to get the frisbee into your endzone.
But the trick is that you cannot run with the frisbee. Once you catch it you have to stand still and pass it down the field.
If the frisbee is dropped, the other team gets posession from where it was dropped.
Passes can be intercepted, and anything goes |

It's key to flick your wrist. A lot of people just kinda throw it while flailing their arms...
You gotta snap your wrist, and that will make the frisbee go straight instead of sideways if you know what i mean |

| It is a fun game but you have to get people that can throw to make it really fun, or have a couple drinks before you play. |

Yeah... its kind of hard to explain on here.
The frisbee should be flat and when you throw it, you start with the frisbee close to you and then flick you wrist outward
does that make sense? |

If you're playing competitively, then I think there is a certain number, but if you're just playing pick up, you can play with as many as you want!
That's the beauty of it |
