I'm relatively new to the WFDF rules<http://www.wfdf.org/index.php?page=rules/wfdf_ultimate_rules.htm>, but it looks to me like (as in UPA rules) it is up to the fouled player to call their own fouls: 404.13 Fouls: - A. Definition: Fouls are the result of physical contact between opposing players. A foul may be called by the player who has been fouledand must be announced by calling out the word, "foul" loudly and immediately after the foul has occurred. I know that in learning and development situations experienced players will often call fouls that they have committed to indicate to newer players when it has happened, but I had thought this was a training device rather than in line with the letter of the rules. (Note this is in contrast to violations which CAN be called by anyone (404.16.B) -LB > Benji > > > __________________________________________________ > BritDisc mailing list > [email protected] > http://www.fysh.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/britdisc > Staying informed - http://www.ukultimate.com/staying-informed > __________________________________________________ BritDisc mailing list [email protected] http://www.fysh.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/britdisc Staying informed - http://www.ukultimate.com/staying-informed
