Which statement about end line rules is accurate?

• A. Crossing the end line without the disc causes a change of possession.
• B. The end line has no impact on play.
• C. The disc crossing the end line is always a point.
• D. Crossing the end line can result in a turnover if the disc is out of bounds.

Answer: (D)

End lines mark the boundary of play; the disc is out of bounds as soon as it touches or crosses an end line. When that happens, play stops and possession is awarded to the opposing team at the spot where it crossed the boundary. This can produce a turnover because possession changes due to the disc leaving the field. Therefore, this statement is accurate. The other options don’t fit because crossing the end line without the disc doesn’t automatically end possession, the end line does impact play by making the disc out of bounds, and crossing the end line is not a guaranteed score.
