Similarly, from the Rules of Ultimate at

Spirit of the Game: Ultimate has traditionally relied upon a spirit of
sportsmanship which places the responsibility for fair play on the
player. Highly competitive play is encouraged, but never at the expense
of the bond of mutual respect between players, adherence to the agreed
upon rules of the game, or the basic joy of play. Protection of these
vital elements serves to eliminate adverse conduct from the Ultimate
field. Such actions as taunting of opposing players, dangerous
aggression, intentional fouling, or other "win-at-all-costs" behavior
are contrary to the spirit of the game and must be avoided by all
players.
