Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. The sole way to score in Ultimate Frisbee is similar to a football touchdown: you must catch a pass in the endzone. How many points is this worth?

Answer: 1

You can't, however, run into the endzone with the disc. See Question 2.
2. Ultimate Frisbee is also similar to basketball, in that what action is forbidden?

Answer: travelling

The Frisbee definition of travelling is different, however: NO MOVING with the disk. No dribbling! You have three steps in which to stop, if you were running when you caught the disc, but other than that there must be no movement.
3. Players are expected to self-referee. They call and admit their own fouls, and must not intentionally foul. This policy of sportsmanship is called what?

Answer: the spirit of the game

The rule works better than you might think. In men's leagues, it is sometimes described as the fact that Ultimate is "a gentleman's sport." Thanks to player Matt685 for pointing this out!
4. One of the first strategies new players learn is that, when their team has the disk, they must get into a straight line running down the field and facing their disc-holding teammate. What is this line called?

Answer: the stack

Players are told to 'stack it up.'
5. Once in a line, players must dash out one-by-one, attempting to get themselves free and open in order to catch a pass. What is this action called?

Answer: a cut

Making a good cut usually involves at least one sharp change of direction, to evade defenders.
6. What is the style of defense most often used against the line?

Answer: man-to-man

Man-to-man involves each defender selecting, or 'marking', a member of the opposing team, to follow across the field and prevent from getting open. The four-man cup is a variation of zone defense.
7. Once someone has taken possession of the disc, how long does he or she have to try to pass it?

Answer: 10 seconds

The nearest defender marks the time by yelling 'Stall-ONE! Stall-TWO! etc.'
8. What is the style of defense wherein at least three players form a cup around the person with the disc, while their teammates each take responsibility for a certain region of the field?

Answer: zone

The idea is twofold. 1) Prevent long throws down the field. 2) Force a large number of short throws, until a mistake is made and the disc is literally 'thrown' away.
9. When playing the defense described in Question 8, what team member(s) do the most running?

Answer: cup

This is because the cup must position itself around EACH opponent who EVER gets the disc.
10. Ultimate Frisbee is regulated by what governing body?

Answer: UPA

The U.P.A. is the Ultimate Players' Association.
