 Hello everyone,

Do you know Ultimate Frisbee? Here you can watch Alicante Club "Bárbaros and Vikingas" playing at San Juan Beach, Alicante. It's wonderful, isn't it? Beach Ultimate is a team sport played in three formats: Men, Women, and Mixed. 

Each team has 5 players on the field and the objective is to score points by catching the flying disc, called Frisbee, in the endzone of the opponent.

The team that first scores 13 points, or the team that has scored most points after 45 minutes, wins.
