Accuracy - Distance - MTA - SCF - TRC
Accuracy
In this event, the goal is to throw as accurately as possible. Players throw from seven different positions, four discs are thrown toward a frame of 1.5 by 1.5 meter. The frame is positioned at a height of 1 meter above the ground. Each time the disc passes through the frame, it is a “hit”.

Maximum Time Aloft
MTA is one of the most demanding of all flying disc disciplines. Good performances require strength, control and an extensive knowledge of the nature of disc flight. Players throw a "boomerang" flight into the air and catch the return flight cleanly in one hand. Time is measured from release until first contact in the catching attempt.

Trajectory Stance
Self Caught Flights
MTA and TRC are often combined into one event by having players throw five attempts of each discipline. The SCF score is derived by taking the TRC result in meters and adding it to the MTA time in seconds which is multiplied by a factor of 5.5. Therefore, a 40 m TRC and 7.3 second MTA would result in an SCF score of 40+ 7.3 x 5.5 equalling 80.15

Throw, Run and Catch
TRC is similar in nature in all aspects to MTA except the difference here requires adding some distance, stamina and speed. Throw the disc some distance, chase it down and catch it cleanly in one hand. Measure from release until first contact in the catching attempt, your total distance from throw to catch is TRC.
