Team Identification:
If you don’t purchase a jersey, please bring a WHITE shirt AND a DARK shirt to help with team identification. You may not be allowed to play without proper attire.
Hyattsville House Rules:
• Keep It Friendly: Be respectful and courteous to everyone, both in person and online. Avoid contact with other players, even if you can reach the disc first.
• Keep it Kid-Friendly: All comments and posts, both on this Facebook page and at games (if kids are present), must be PG.
• No Grey Areas: Bring a WHITE shirt AND a DARK shirt for team identification. Avoid wearing ambiguous colors like grey, sky blue, or light pink. Substitute players and spectators should stand at least 3 yards off of the sideline, to prevent confusion and interference.
• Be Disc-Respectful: Don't spike or step on discs. Plastic is a non-renewable resource.
• Cartwheel: Dropping the pull isn't a turnover, but you must attempt a cartwheel as penance. If you can't safely cartwheel, perform a pushup or another symbolic gesture.
• Field Size: We play on a 40 yard wide field with a 70 yard long center zone and two 15 yard deep end zones.
• Except where listed above, we follow USA Ultimate rules.
