RULES AND REGULATIONS
· Pull / Kick-off
The game begins when all players from both teams stand inside their individual end zones (marked out with red/white tapes) and one player from the defending team will pull after the offending team signaled that they are ready. Pulls are long throws to the opposite team, and they are thrown in efforts of giving the offensive team poor field position and a chance for the defense to get down the field soon enough to stop advances. The team that starts the Pull is determined by a toss of coin. If there’s a second half in the match, the opposing team that did not start the first half will kick-start the game.

Change of possession
An incomplete pass will result in a change of possession. When this happens, the defending team immediately becomes the offending team and gains the possession of the disc where it comes to a stop on the field of play, where it first travelled out of bounds. Plays carry on during a turnover.
Reasons for turnover
• Throw-away — the thrower misses his target and the disc falls to the ground.
• Drop — the receiver is not able to catch the disc.
• Block — a defender deflects the disc in mid flight, causing it to hit the ground.
• Interception — a defender catches a disc thrown by the offense.
• Out of bounds — the disc lands out of bounds, hits an object out of bounds or is caught by a player who lands out of bounds or leaps from outside the playing field.
• Hit out — the disc is being hit out of the person’s hand.
