Mixed Division Gender Ratio Rules:

 

  1. Determining the ratio
    All Mixed games will use the "prescribed ratio" rule (also known as Rule A in the official WFDF Rules of Ultimate 2022-2024 – APPENDIX v1.0:

    Ratio Rule A ("prescribed ratio" rule):
    At the start of the game, after the first disc flip, an additional disc flip happens with the winner selecting the gender ratio for the first point. For the second and third points the ratio must be the reverse of the first point. For the fourth and fifth points the ratio must be the same as the first point. This pattern of alternating the ratio every two points repeats until the end of the game (half time has no impact on the pattern).
  2. All Mixed games will use the "majority pull" rule"
    Each point, a player representing the gender match-up with four players on the field must pull for that point. That is, if there are four women-matching players a woman-matching player must pull.
  3. For all Mixed games, if a team cannot match the on-field personnel ratio of all seven players on the team determining the personnel ratio for the point, then it must play with fewer than seven players, but no less than 5, matching the personnel ratio with as many players as possible.
  4. For all Mixed games – Personnel Ratio Violation: Violations of the prescribed personnel ratio will be handled the same as an offsides/false start violation (9.B.4.d) with the exception that the team calling the violation may choose to have a repull or to put the disc in play per 9.B.4.d.
  5. Substitutions
    Player substitutions can be completed only:
    1. after a goal and before the substituting team has signaled readiness; or
    2. to replace injured players, replace players with illegal equipment, or to resolve an incorrect personnel violation. In this case, the opposing team may substitute a like number of, or fewer, players. In the Mixed Division the substituting players must be of the same gender match
