    My feet left the ground. My arms extended. My entire body was parallel to the ground for what seemed to be an eternity.  Nothing was going through my mind except one overpowering thought: catch the Frisbee.  It was not just a Frisbee however. It was the game winning goal. It was redemption for my previous mistakes. It was reward for all of my tireless work. It was the gateway to eternal bliss.  Catching this pass was a necessity.

Within one year the very first game of ultimate frisbee was played among the Columbia High School students using a Wham-O Master disc. Eventually a team was formed at that high school by 1969 and games were held regularly in the parking lot of their school

    This could be it. That was the only thought in my head as I chased a plastic Frisbee in the end zone. The game was tied at 10-10 — whoever scored the next point would win the game and continue on to nationals. My team had been playing with only one substitute all day; our current opponent had over seven subs. My team had worked so hard to get this far‚ but we were tired and injured. I saw the disc flying over my head but also saw a girl on the other team rapidly approaching behind me‚ hoping to thwart

    The Spirit of Ultimate Frisbee I think that the “Spirit of the game” in Frisbee refers to the overall fairness of the sport. The responsibility of the game lies in the players themselves. The best way that this is displayed is in the foul calling system. First‚ the fouled player has to call a foul under fair circumstances‚ if there is no foul on the play‚ the players are not supposed to call fouls. Also the player that causes the foul is not supposed to argue or disagree‚ but accept the call
