True. If the offense touches the pull and fails to establish possession before the disc hits the ground, it is considered a turnover, known as a "dropped pull." This rule is specifically outlined in the context of the pull in Ultimate frisbee.

True. After signaling readiness and prior to the pull, the offense must stand with one foot on their defending goal line without changing position relative to one another until the pull is released. This is outlined in the rules to ensure that all offensive players are correctly positioned and ready for the start of play.

False. The rules do not specify that all defensive players must be at most 5 metres outside of their defending end zone when the pull is released. Instead, the rules focus on ensuring that all non-players from the defensive team must be off the playing field before the pull is released, as stated in the sources. There is no specific mention of a 5-metre restriction for defensive players in relation to their end zone during the pull.

False. According to the rules, if the offence makes an 'offside' call against the defence and then catches the pull, the offside call has no bearing and play continues as if no offside has been called. There is no provision for the offence to resume play as if a brick had been called under these circumstances. The game proceeds without the special conditions that apply to a brick call, such as moving the disc to the brick mark.

True. When the offence makes an 'offside' call against the defence and lets the disc hit the ground untouched, they can indeed resume play as if a brick has been called, and no check is required. This rule allows the game to continue smoothly without unnecessary interruptions after an offside violation has been acknowledged.

False. According to the rules of Ultimate, if an offensive player signals and calls "brick," it does not necessarily have to be the same player who picks up the disc. A different offensive player is allowed to pick up the disc after the "brick" call has been made.

No, the rule does not require that the same player who signals 'brick' must also be the one to pick up the disc. According to the rules of Ultimate, if an offensive player signals and calls "brick," a different offensive player is allowed to pick up the disc. This provides flexibility in who can handle the disc after the brick call is made.

Yes, if the offense drops the pull and the disc hits the ground, it is considered a turnover. This is specifically referred to as a "dropped pull" turnover. According to the rules, if an offensive player, whether in-bounds or out-of-bounds, touches the disc before it hits the ground and the offensive team fails to subsequently establish possession, that results in a turnover. For more detailed information, you can refer to the rules under "Rules of Ultimate - The Pull."

When both teams call offside during a pull in Ultimate, the rules specify that the outcomes described in rules 7.5.1 and 7.5.2 apply. This means that if both the offense and defense are offside, the specific scenarios and their consequences outlined in these rules will determine how play continues. For instance, if the defense is offside and the offense also calls offside after catching the disc, the offside call has no bearing and play continues as if no offside was called. Similarly, if the defense is offside and the offense calls offside and then the disc hits the ground and stops in the offense's defending endzone, the offense can pick up the disc and resume play from the brick mark closest to their defending endzone without a check.

It appears there might be a typo in your question. If you meant "when both teams call offside," the rules specify that if both teams are called for offside on the same pull, the outcomes described in rules 7.5.1 and 7.5.2 would apply. However, the specific outcomes for these rule numbers are not detailed in the provided sources. Generally, if both teams commit an offside violation simultaneously, it typically results in a re-pull, where the pull is redone to restart play fairly.

In Ultimate frisbee, the penalty for an offside violation during the pull varies slightly depending on the specific ruleset being applied (USAU or WFDF), but generally, the consequences are consistent across different organizations. When a team commits an offside during the pull, the typical response is to allow the receiving team to either accept the result of the pull or to call for a re-pull. This means that if the receiving team is not satisfied with where the disc has landed due to the offside, they can request that the disc be pulled again. Observers or game advisors play a crucial role in monitoring offsides during the pull. They are positioned strategically to watch both the pulling and the receiving teams to ensure all players are correctly positioned before the pull occurs. If an offside is observed, it is signaled and announced, and the appropriate action is taken based on the specific rules of the tournament or league. For more detailed information on the exact procedures and penalties, it is recommended to refer to the official rules of the governing body for the event, such as the USA Ultimate (USAU) or the World Flying Disc Federation (WFDF).

When an offensive team is offside during a pull in Ultimate, the specific consequences and how play resumes depend on the rules set being followed and the situation. Generally, if the offensive team is offside, the pull is typically redone. The receiving team may have the option to accept the pull as it occurred or request a re-pull depending on the severity and impact of the offside violation. In some cases, observers or officials may be involved in monitoring offsides, and their signals and calls help enforce the rules. For more detailed and specific rules, it would be necessary to refer to the official rulebook or guidelines of the tournament or league, as the handling of offsides can vary.

False. According to the rules, if the offence is offside and the defence calls offside before the offence touches the disc, and then the offence catches the pull, the offside call has no bearing and play continues as if no offside has been called. There is no requirement for the thrower to wait at the spot they caught the pull until play is restarted as if a time-out had been called at that location.

True. According to the rules of Ultimate, if the pull lands out-of-bounds without first touching the playing field, the offense has the option to call "brick" or, in USAU rules, they can also choose to take the disc at the "middle" of the field, in line with where the disc went out-of-bounds. This provides the offensive team with two options for establishing their pivot point to resume play.

True. According to the rules of Ultimate, players must establish a stationary position during stoppages of play, which is when play is considered 'dead'. For example, during a time-out, all offensive players must establish a stationary position at any location, as per the Time-Outs rule (20.3.3). Similarly, defensive players must also establish a stationary position at any location once the offensive players have selected positions (20.3.4). Additionally, after a call is made and play stops, all players must return to the location they held when the call was made and remain stationary until the disc is checked in (10.2.2.3). Therefore, it is accurate to say that players must be stationary anytime that play is 'dead'.

False. According to the rules of Ultimate, there is no difference whether a team has been called for their first offside violation or they have been called offside multiple times; the outcome is the same. The game does not require the defense to undertake the pull again solely based on the fact that it is their first offside call. The rules specify the consequences of an offside call but do not mandate a re-pull for the first instance of an offside violation by the defense.

False. According to the rules of Ultimate, an offside violation can be called even after the offence has touched the disc. For example, if the defence is offside and the offence calls offside after they catch the disc, the offside call has no bearing and play continues as if no offside has been called. Similarly, if the offence is offside and the defence calls offside after the offence have caught the disc, the offside call also has no bearing and play continues as if no offside has been called. Therefore, the statement that an offside violation must be called before the offence touches the disc is false.

False. According to the rules of Ultimate, if an offensive player catches the pull while they are out of bounds, they cannot call 'Brick'. The 'Brick' call is used when the pull lands out of bounds, not when it is caught out of bounds by a player. If an offensive player catches the disc while out of bounds, it is considered a turnover according to the rules.

False. According to the rules of Ultimate, if the pull lands in bounds and stops in the end zone without ever going out-of-bounds, the thrower must establish a pivot at the goal line closest to where the disc stopped. There is no option given to establish the pivot at the location of the disc in this scenario.

The statement "The perimeter lines are part of the playing field" is incorrect according to the rules of Ultimate. Specifically, the perimeter lines, which consist of two sidelines along the length and two endlines along the width of the playing field, are not part of the playing field itself. This is clarified in the rules, which state that the entire playing field is in-bounds, but the perimeter lines are out-of-bounds. Therefore, the perimeter lines surround the playing field but are not included within it.

False. According to the rules, if the defence is offside during the pull and the offence calls offside while the disc is still in the air, the outcome of the play is not affected by the offside call if the offence drops the pull. Specifically, a dropped pull is considered a turnover regardless of any offsides or false start violations, and play continues unhalted following the turnover. Therefore, the statement that the offence dropping the pull after calling offside on the defence results in a turnover is false, as the offside call negates the turnover that would normally result from a dropped pull.

False. According to the rules of Ultimate, if an offensive player signals and calls "brick," a different offensive player may pick up the disc. However, it does not state that the intended thrower may choose to ignore their teammate's call and take it from the sideline. The rule implies that once "brick" is called, the disc should be taken to the brick mark, not the sideline.

True. According to the rules, after signalling readiness and prior to the pull, all offensive players must stand with one foot on their defending goal line without changing location relative to one another until the pull is released. This is outlined in the Rules of Ultimate - The Pull (7.2).

False. According to the rules provided, if the offence (Team B) calls offside while the disc is still in the air and then drops the pull, it is considered a "dropped pull" turnover. The offside call by the offence does not negate the turnover that results from dropping the pull. Therefore, Team B cannot pick up the disc and establish a pivot point as per the offside rule in this scenario. The disc would go to Team A where the drop occurred.

False. According to the rules, if the offence makes an 'offside' call against the defence and then catches the pull, the offside call has no bearing and play continues as if no offside has been called.

False. According to the rules, if the offence is offside and the defence calls offside before the offence touches the disc, and then the offence catches the pull in the endzone they are defending, the offside call has no bearing and play continues as if no offside has been called. The thrower does not need to wait at the spot they caught the pull until play is restarted as if a time-out had been called at that location.

A turnover in Ultimate frisbee is not considered a violation; rather, it is an event that transfers possession of the disc from one team to the other. Violations, on the other hand, are specific infractions of the rules that may or may not result in turnovers, depending on the situation and the specific rule that has been violated. For example, if an offensive player physically assists the movement of a teammate or uses an item of equipment to assist in contacting the disc, this results in a turnover. Similarly, if a defender intercepts a pass while airborne and throws the disc before contacting the ground, and the pass is incomplete, that is also a turnover. Violations, such as fouls or infractions, can lead to stoppages in play and may affect possession, but they are distinct from turnovers. A turnover is simply the loss of possession of the disc, which can occur for various reasons outlined in the rules, such as a dropped pull, an out-of-bounds play, or an incomplete pass after an interception.

False. According to the rules of Ultimate, when executing a pull, the puller must have both feet completely within the end zone until the disc is released. If the puller has one foot in the central zone when the pull is released, it would be considered a violation of the rules.

False. A turnover is not considered a violation. In the context of Ultimate frisbee, a turnover refers to an event that transfers possession of the disc from one team to the other, such as when a pass is intercepted or a disc is dropped. Violations, on the other hand, are specific infractions of the rules, such as traveling or fouls. The two terms describe different aspects of the game and should not be confused.

True. According to the rules of Ultimate, an offside violation must be called before the offence touches the disc. This is outlined in the rules regarding "The Pull" (7.5), where it specifies that the opposing team may call a violation ("offside") before the offence has made contact with the disc.

False. According to the rules of Ultimate, if the pull (the initial throw to start play) goes out-of-bounds, the offensive team is allowed to take possession of the disc. There is no rule stating that giving the disc to a teammate after picking it up constitutes a turnover. A turnover would occur if the player who picked up the disc dropped it while attempting to pass or if they threw an incomplete pass. However, simply handing the disc to a teammate does not result in a turnover.

False. A turnover in Ultimate frisbee is not considered a violation; it is simply an event that transfers possession of the disc from one team to the other. Violations, on the other hand, are specific infractions of the rules that can occur during play, such as fouls or traveling. Turnovers can occur for various reasons, such as a pass being intercepted or going out of bounds, but they are not classified as violations.

True. According to the rules of Ultimate, if an offensive player touches the disc before it hits the ground during a pull and the offensive team fails to subsequently establish possession, it is considered a turnover, known as a "dropped pull" (7.7). This is consistent with the general principle that a turnover occurs when possession of the disc is transferred from one team to the other (13.1.4).

A pull in ultimate frisbee refers to the throw made by the defending team to start play at the beginning of a half or after a goal. The pull is not considered a legal pass and must be made after both teams have signaled their readiness. The pulling team may designate a new puller at any time before the pull. The pull should be released within 75 seconds of the start of the point. If the pull hits the ground and starts rolling towards the defending end zone, a defender can stop the disc even before an offensive player has touched it. If the defensive player kicks the disc towards the offensive end zone, the offense may put it into play at the point where it was kicked. If the pull is still in the air without the offense having touched it, no defensive player may touch it. If a player does touch it, the offense may request a re-pull. If the pull lands in the offense's attacking end zone, the offense should take it on the goal line. Any offensive player can also stop the pull from rolling, and they are not required to pick up the disc after stopping it.

A turnover in ultimate frisbee refers to the transfer of possession of the disc from one team to the other. There are several ways in which a turnover can occur. One way is when a player intentionally drops the disc, places it on the ground, or intentionally transfers possession after a turnover. Another way is when an offensive player touches the disc before it hits the ground during a pull and fails to establish possession. Additionally, if a defender intercepts a pass while airborne and throws the disc before contacting the ground, resulting in an incomplete pass, it is considered a turnover. The turnover location is where the player establishes possession, where the disc comes to rest naturally, or where the disc is stopped from rolling or sliding. After establishing possession, the player becomes the thrower. It is important to note that physical assistance from an offensive player or a defender using an item of equipment to contact the disc can result in a turnover or a violation, respectively. Time-outs are not considered turnovers but events resulting in a change of possession.

Hex offense is a strategy used in Ultimate frisbee that involves positioning players in a hexagonal shape on the field. The goal of this offense is to create space and provide multiple options for the thrower. The hex shape allows for efficient movement and quick passes between players. In a hex offense, there are typically three handlers positioned in the center of the hexagon, with three cutters positioned on the outside. The handlers work together to move the disc and initiate plays, while the cutters make cuts and create opportunities for receiving the disc. The hex offense relies on constant movement and communication between players. The cutters make cuts towards the disc or away from it, creating space for themselves and their teammates. The handlers use quick passes and fakes to keep the defense guessing and create openings for throws. It's important for players in a hex offense to be aware of their positioning and the positioning of their teammates. They should constantly be looking for opportunities to make cuts, create space, and provide passing options for the thrower. Overall, the hex offense is a dynamic and versatile strategy that can be effective in creating scoring opportunities in Ultimate frisbee.

The longest pull a person could throw in Ultimate frisbee is not explicitly stated in the provided sources. However, according to the Rules of Ultimate - The Pull (7.1.1), the pull should be released within 75 seconds of the start of the point. This timing guideline suggests that the pull should be executed within a reasonable timeframe. It is important to note that the distance of the pull can vary depending on the individual's throwing ability and the playing conditions.

After signalling readiness, and prior to the pull, the offence must stand with one foot on their defending goal line without changing location relative to one another until the pull is released.

A pull in Ultimate Frisbee refers to the throw made by the defending team to the opposing team at the start of a half or after a goal. The pull is not considered a legal pass and it must be released within 75 seconds of the start of the point. The defensive player can stop the disc even before an offensive player has touched it, and if the defensive player kicks the disc towards the offensive end zone, the offense can put it into play at the point where it was kicked. If the pull is still in the air without the offense having touched it, no defensive player may touch it. If a player does touch it, the offense may request a re-pull. If the pull lands in the offense's attacking end zone, the offense should take it on the goal line. The puller is the defender who undertakes the pull, and the pulling team may designate a new puller at any time before the pull.

False. According to Rule 8.4 of the "Rules of Ultimate - The Pull," a rolling disc may be stopped by either the offense or the defense. The rule states that if a pull hits the ground and starts rolling towards the defending end zone, a defender is allowed to stop the disc, even before an offensive player has touched it. Therefore, both the offense and the defense have the ability to stop a rolling disc.

Offside in ultimate frisbee refers to a violation where a player on the defending team crosses the line of scrimmage before the disc is released on the pull. Offside can only be called by the players on the field, and any call made by a non-player has no consequences. If offside is called, play is stopped and a re-pull is required. However, to contest an offside call, a player on the contesting team must have perspective at least as good as the person making the call. It is recommended that the opposing team provide a warning to the captain of the team committing this violation before it is enforced. If the defense chooses to call offside, the thrower must establish a pivot point, and play restarts as soon as possible as if a time-out had been called at that location.

Yes, after a pull, the attacking team can start the play from a different point than where the disc landed. According to Rule 8.4.1, if the defensive player kicks the disc towards the offensive end zone, the disc may be put into play by the offense at the point where it was kicked. Additionally, if the pull lands in the offense's attacking end zone, the offense should take it on the goal line. Any offense player can also stop the pull from rolling, and they are not required to pick up the disc after stopping it.

After a pull, you can pick up the disc and start from the brick as soon as the disc is released. All players may move in any direction once the disc is released.

Yes, you can call "brick" on any pull in Ultimate frisbee. If an offensive player signals and calls "brick", a different offensive player may pick up the disc. This means that if you believe the pull landed out-of-bounds or in-bounds and players cannot agree, the midpoint on the sideline between the two proposed pivot locations should be used.

A brick call in Ultimate frisbee refers to a situation where an offensive player signals and calls "brick" after the pull. This call allows a different offensive player to pick up the disc instead. If there is a disagreement among players regarding whether the pull landed out-of-bounds or in-bounds, the midpoint on the sideline between the two proposed pivot locations should be used.
