Two teams of six to ten occupy opposite sides of a playing field. There are two discs in play for each team, making a total of four discs in play at all times.
Both
teams are attempting to cross one of their players across the goal
line of the opposing side with their team’s “point disc” in
hand.
Each
team has one “point disc” in play which is passed back and forth
between team members as they advance down the field. When a player is
passed the point disc, they may run with it or pass, or both.
Each
side also has a “tag disc” (different color than “point disc”)
in play. This is also passed back and forth between members of each
respective team. The “tag disc” may be thrown at the person on
the opposing team who is currently in possession of that team’s
“point disc.”
If
the thrown “tag disc” connects with the person on the opposing
team while that person is still in possession of his team’s “point
disc,” the team that has been tagged must return their “point
disc” to behind their own goal line and start their advance again.
Also,
if a team intercepts the opposing team’s “point disc,” the team
that suffers the interception must return their point disc to behind
their goal line and start their advance again.
Unlike
with the “point disc,” players may not run once they catch the
“tag disc,” they may only pass it to one of their teammates or
attempt to “tag” the person on the opposing side currently in
possession of that team’s “point disc” (either by throwing it
at that person or, if close enough, by directly tagging that player
with the “tag disc” in their hand).
While
a team may intercept or slap down the opposing team’s “point
disc” or “tag disc,” the may not retain possession of it and
must immediately drop it or hand it to the nearest member of the
opposing team.
While
a team must return their “point disc” to behind their own goal
line and start their advance down the field over again if it is
intercepted or if the teammate in possession of it is put into
contact with the opposing team’s “tag disc,” the “tag disc
remains in play on the field throughout.
The
teams play until a predetermined number of points have been scored by
the winning team.
