Intramural sports adds Ultimate Frisbee Published Sept. 12, 2009 By Carl Poteat Air University Public Affairs MAXWELL AIR FORCE BASE, Ala. -- The Maxwell-Gunter Fitness and Sports Center is including Ultimate Frisbee for the first time as an intramural sport. The Frisbee season begins Oct. 20. Deadline for team entry is no later than Oct. 9, according to Yancey Atchley, director of intramural sports. Squadrons can enter a team by completing a form provided by the fitness center. A commander's endorsement is mandatory to enter a team. A coaches' meeting for Frisbee is scheduled for Sept. 25, 10 a.m., at the Maxwell Fitness Annex. Mr. Atchley said Ultimate Frisbee is a non-contact sport played by two seven player teams. The object of the game is to score goals. The disc may only be moved by passing as the thrower is not allowed to take any steps. Any time a pass is incomplete, intercepted, knocked-down, or contacts an out-of-bounds area, a turnover occurs, resulting in an immediate change of possession of the disc. A goal is scored when an offense team player successfully passes the disc to a teammate in the defense's endzone.
