Essential Ultimate: Teaching, Coaching, Playing

Best book on Ultimate hands down. G G G G GRUEL

Tiina Booth and Michael Baccarini certainly know what they're talking about, being legendary coaches from Amherst, Mass and Paideia, in Atlanta, GA. This is a great read for those players looking to improve on their skills and become a better player.

This is the de facto "complete guide" to playing Ultimate for a reason. It's arranged logically, is useful for a beginner, has plenty of relevant photos, and provides tactical insights about the game.

I was very pleased with this book. The descriptions of the various skills are very detailed and well-explained. I am a captain of a college Ultimate club and we have implemented a number of drills from this book into our practices. I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in captaining a team.

I'm an Ultimate Beginner. Here in Germany there is not much literature about Ultimate. So far I think it's a really good basic book with alot of drills and training tips. I'm missing all the special throws like thumber, hammer, scoober, asf.

I guess I should have read the description better. I didn't realize it was for frisbee

I love this book. Great for beginners and helping to coach others

All ok

I got this very accessible, practical and useful book on playing, teaching and coaching Ultimate when I first started to play the game a couple of years ago. It helped me to understand all the basic as well as more advanced aspects of the game including how to correct common throwing mistakes; reading/catching the disc; running and cutting effectively and; a variety of offence/defence team drills which I found helpful in terms of understanding the flow of the game. There are plenty of diagrams and the explanations are appropriate in length as well as clear.

I have captained for over 7 years and coached for 3 years. This is the best textbook on ultimate out there. I recommend it to new captains and coaches all the time.
