If a contested call cannot be resolved on the field, what happens next?

• A. The offense immediately scores a point.
• B. The players vote on the call.
• C. The format’s rules provide a mechanism (e.g., replay, reset, or go to a pre-agreed procedure).
• D. The disc is turned over to the other team.

Answer: (C)

When a contested call can’t be sorted out on the field, the event’s rules specify a built-in dispute-resolution mechanism to keep the game fair and orderly. This is why the format provides options like replaying the point, resetting to the situation before the play, or applying a pre-agreed procedure (for example, involving observers or an arbitration step). This approach ensures there’s a clear, agreed-upon way to resolve disputes rather than leaving it to on-field outcomes or player votes.

The other scenarios don’t fit because they assume an immediate field-based decision or outcome that isn’t mandated by formal dispute procedures: a quick score on a disputed call isn’t guaranteed, a player vote isn’t a standard mechanism, and simply turning the disc over isn’t the default resolution unless the format’s procedure leads there.
