ULTRAFLOW
| UltraFlow is an exciting new game that combines the elements of ultimate, soccer and basketball. The object is to score points by throwing, tipping or zipping (tossing the disc by the Whatchamastallit (cone)) the disc into an opponents goal as you would in soccer. The disc is passed up field as in ultimate however, a player has the option to run with the disc by spinning it on his or her finger. This is an exciting fast paced game with variable score of one point for zipping inside the quarter line or two points for throwing into the goal outside the quarter line. A formal game is played with eight players on a team including a goalie on each side. An UltraFIow video will be made available soon outlining strategies and advanced play. |
