Play
The game begins with some kind of fair settlement between each team to decide who starts first. The first team tosses the Frisbee, aiming it towards a glass bottle that is placed on top of the stake opposite them. Then the other team throws the Frisbee at the first team's bottle. Points are scored when the bottle is knocked off the stake, the receiving team fails to catch the Frisbee, or the Frisbee is thrown in a way that it is uncatchable (see Scoring). Play continues until one team has reached a set amount of points (typically 21), beating their opponent by at least two points.

Famous quotes containing the word play:
“They want to play at being mothers. So let them. Expressing tenderness in their own way will not prevent girls from enjoying a successful career in the future; indeed, the ability to nurture is as valuable a skill in the workplace as the ability to lead.”
—Anne Roiphe (20th century)
“Mothers are not the nameless, faceless stereotypes who appear once a year on a greeting card with their virtues set to prose, but women who have been dealt a hand for life and play each card one at a time the best way they know how. No mother is all good or all bad, all laughing or all serious, all loving or all angry. Ambivalence rushes through their veins.”
—Erma Bombeck (20th century)
“I am the only actor.
It is difficult for one woman
to act out a whole play.
The play is my life,
my solo act.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
