Frisbee
Find a frisbee toss or pickup ultimate near you
Frisbee scales from two people throwing on a lawn to a full 7-on-7 ultimate game, and the same disc works for both. Post a toss when you want to work on your forehand, or a game when you have a field and want the numbers.
Toss vs. ultimate
A toss is two or three people throwing backhands, forehands and hammers — the frisbee version of playing catch. Ultimate is 5v5 or 7v7 on a field with end zones: move the disc by passing, no running with it, score by catching it in the end zone. It is self-refereed; players call their own fouls and resolve them on the field.
Where to play
- Any open grass for a toss.
- A full park or school field for ultimate, with cones or bags marking the end zones.
- Wind matters more than for any other ball sport — a sheltered field is worth the walk.
What to bring
- A 175-gram disc, the standard for ultimate. Cheaper promotional discs fly badly.
- Cones for end zones and a light shirt and a dark shirt so teams can be told apart.
- Cleats help on grass for ultimate; any shoes are fine for a toss.
Pickup etiquette
- No contact. Ultimate's Spirit of the Game means you call your own fouls and assume the other player is honest.
- Count the stall out loud so the thrower knows how long they have.
- Rotate players in every point if there are more people than spots.
How CatchBuddy helps
Post the park, the time, and whether you are bringing the frisbee, and people nearby who play frisbee can see it and ask to join. Or browse players near you and invite someone directly. Games are at public parks, messaging stays on the platform, and everyone builds a rating history. Read the safety guidelines before your first meetup.
