Using a badminton court and net, partners will face their opponents on the other side of the net.
"Rock, paper, scissors" will determine who starts with the frisbee.
The object of the game is to throw the frisbee over the net so that it drops on the opponents side of the court.
The frisbee is sent over the net to score.
In order to score a point, the frisbee must land on the opponent side within the badminton boundaries.
If team "A" sends the frisbee outside the boundaries and it hits the floor, team "B" receives control of the frisbee.
When play stops for any reason, the team with possession must send the frisbee from the baseline of the badminton court.
