Disc

Any flying disc may be used as long as it is acceptable to both team captains and meets the requirements set forth in Article I of the WFDF rules. If the captains cannot agree, a disc designated by the WFDF Ultimate Committee as an official disc for the event shall be used. If no such disc has been designated, any disc designated by the WFDF Ultimate Committee as an approved disc for ultimate play shall be used. If the teams cannot agree upon a specific approved disc for play, two options are available:

  1. each team shall supply the approved disc(s) for one half of the game using the disc flipping method to determine the order of use; or;
  2. if that solution is not acceptable to both teams they shall resolve the disagreement through the disc flipping method. The team winning the flip shall then supply the approved disc(s) for the entire game.
  3. Additional spare discs (approved in accordance with this section) may be held by any officials to be used by the offense to replace an out-of-bounds or damaged disc at the offense's discretion. This rule is limited to the following situations: out-of-bounds pull receptions, between points, during time-outs, or during stoppages of play due to fouls or violations.

Protective Clothing

Players may wear any soft protective clothing so long as it does not endanger the safety of any other player.

Uniform

The players of each team shall wear a uniform or other clothing that distinguishes them from the players of the other team.

Cleats

Cleats are permitted; however, players may not use any cleats which have any metal exposed.
