Which term describes a diving catch attempt that is legal if no fouls are called?

• A. A standing catch.
• B. A throw from the end zone.
• C. A diving or sprawling catch attempt; legal if no fouls are called.
• D. A turnover-causing play.

Answer: (C)

Diving catches are allowed in Ultimate. A player may leave the ground to grab the disc, and the play is considered legal as long as no fouls are called during the attempt. The key idea is that the dive itself is permitted, but fouls can change the outcome if they’re called. If no foul is called, the dive results in a valid catch just like any other catch. The other options don’t describe the diving aspect: standing catches happen without diving, a throw from the end zone is a different action, and a turnover-causing play refers to the result rather than the type of catch attempt.
