Spirit of the Game Scoring
BULA recognizes that Spirit of the Game (SOTG) is a pillar of disc sports and all BULA Recommended events use a system to teach and celebrate good Spirit. The most common system is the official WFDF & BULA Spirit of the Game scoring system. This scoring system took over 10 years to develop and has grown into a comprehensive Spirit evaluation and educational tool with great examples.
Your whole team should be involved in rating the other team! Determine the score in each of the five categories and sum up the points to determine the SOTG score for the other team. Most scores will be between 8- 13 pts. A “10” is an good average score.
