General Scoring Rules

Players cannot step into the lane while shooting

A disc must stop completely within the scoring area to be counted

Discs touching lines do not count (unless you’re playing a “friendly,” then you can count any disc that lies 50% or more within a scoring area. This is the staff preference)

Discs that land in the 10-Off area count as -10 points

Clear out discs that do not pass the two center lines prior to the next disc being played

The first player or team to reach 75 wins

Players can create their own scoring limits, or play up to a certain number of rounds
