OK, fair point, I wasn't being clear.
I'd always tell the opponent I'd fouled them, rather than calling it.
Sorry for confusion, I am a chumpty.

Also, there is an argument to be made that if the fouled player wanted to call
it they would have. Perhaps stopping the play at this point is NOT advantageous
to the offense and so on top of fouling, you've broken up their flow...

Is this true:
Or you could call it on yourself... As has already been mentioned in this
discussion, it isn't acceptable to just foul until it's called. You're a
referee - everyone is - so if there's been a foul, call it, no matter who
did it.
?
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)
