AND ANSWERS 2024/2025
Backhand
→ To throw the disc from the left side of the body for right handed players (or from the
right for left handed players)
Break (side, pass, or cut)
→ The side to which the marker is trying to prevent the throw (or a pass/cut to this side)
Clearing
→ To get out of the area where the thrower wants to pass the disc. Absolutely necessary
after making an unsuccessful cut or after throwing the pass. The importance of this is
often underplayed to beginners.
Cut
→ An attempt to get free to receive the pass. Usually starting with a body fake and/or a
sudden change in direction or speed.
Defence
→ The team attempting to prevent a score.
Dump
→ Player who stands behind the thrower in order to help out (must get free for an easy
pass) when the offense gets in trouble.
Flow
→ A series of quick passes to well-times cuts—should result in an easy score.
→ To make it as difficult as possible for the thrower to throw the disc in one direction
(usually one side of the field) in an attempt to make (force) him/her to make a pass to
the other side. See the relevant section for how and why this is done.
Forehand (or flick)
→ To throw the disc from the right side of the body for right handed players (or from the
left for left handed players). The motion is similar in some respects to the forehand in
tennis.
Free (or open)
→ To be available to receive the pass. The "free player" may be unmarked or have
managed to get away from his/her defender.
Hammer
→ High overhead throw; the disc flies upside down in a parabolic type path. The grip,
release etc is similar to the forehand.
Hand block
→ This is when the defender stops the disc directly after it is released by the thrower.
Huck
→ A long pass; often nearly the full length of the pitch and high to a tall player in the
endzone.
Man-on-man
→ The most common type of defense. Each person on defense marks an offensive player
and attempts to stay as close as possible with the intention of getting an interception
or forcing a mistake.
