Tournament sites will have a tournament tent for teams to sign-in, boards with tournament brackets and scores, a medical tent, and may have tournament stores to purchase apparel, discs and other items with the tournament logo. Credit cards are accepted at most. Cost of tournament jerseys may range from $40 - $65. The tournament store provides a limited number of items and sizes so purchase items early the first day of the tournament.
pre-game activities
Upon arriving to the designated playing field, be in uniform, change into your cleats and listen for Coach or Captain instructions. The team will conduct pre-game stretching and warm-up drills before each game. Prior to the start of the game, Captains of both teams will meet midfield and flip discs to determine who will receive the disc first (Odd meaning one frisbee landed on front of disc and the other on the back or Even meaning both frisbees landed on the same side of the disc) and which side of the field the pulling team will start from.
A player(s) may be designated by the team to bring a speaker and provide a music play list. Music may not include profane, explicit or demeaning lyrics.

post-game activities
At the conclusion of the match, players from both teams will meet on the field and create a Spirit Circle. The circle alternates players from each team with players typically holding hands, putting arms around each others' shoulders or locking arms. Each team's Spirit Captain will name a player on the opposing team as the Spirit Award winner. This player best exemplifies the "Spirit of The Game (SOGT).
The Spirit Captain will also give the opposing team a Spirit Award score. These scores are submitted to a tournament official, tallied and a Spirit Award is presented to the team with the most spirit award points during the entire tournament. This award is equally as important as winning the tournament.
The team may be required to move to a different playing field. After the Spirit Circle, players are encouraged to help move the Players and Team Tents, the Team flag then family tents and personal items. Players are to collect all personal items and ensure personal trash/debris has been collected and properly disposed. Typically there are trash receptacles located at each playing field.
