The most important rule: Spirit of the Game
Beach Ultimate relies upon a spirit of sportsmanship that places the responsibility for fair play on the players themselves. Highly competitive play is encouraged, but never at the expense of mutual respect among players, adherence to the agreed-upon rules of the game or the basic joy of play. The purpose of the rules of Beach Ultimate is to provide a guideline describing the way the game is played. It is assumed that no Beach Ultimate player will intentionally violate the rules; there are no harsh penalties for inadvertent infractions but, rather, a method for resuming play in a manner that simulates what would most likely have occurred had there been no infraction.
