The PUL wants to acknowledge that in the current state of ultimate culture many tenets of supremacy culture have found their ways into how we define “spirit of the game”. We want to specifically name how these uphold the systems of oppression of racism, sexism, and transphobia in our community. Ultimate players may cite civility, respect, and a calm demeanor as traits of the most spirited players. How this affects our perspective on spirit is that we then consider brashness, emotions, and passion to be unspirited.
