Game Overview - Getting Started

You should start out by finding friends and playing a few Friendly Games. Keep it simple.
  1. Before you start the game let everyone warm up and practice throwing and catching.
  2. Don't worry about using Referees.
  3. Be aware of the fouls but do not enforce penalties. Add them to later games.
  4. Try to play quickly and keep the game going but take a break if you need to check the rules.
  5. After the game, review the rules again. Did you misunderstand something during your game?
