This study aimed to examine positional differences in these variables among male UF players. Methods: Forty male players (age: 25.13 \u00b1 3.76 years; 7.0 \u00b1 2.5 years of training experience) participated in this cross-sectional design, including 20 cutters and 20 handlers. Anthropometry, body composition, and dynamic balance variables were analyzed using independent-samples t-tests or Mann\u2013Whitney U tests, as appropriate. Positional differences in somatotype and physical performance were analyzed using a one-way multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA). Results: No positional differences were observed in general anthropometric variables (p &gt; 0.05). However, handlers exhibited higher body fat percentage (14.32 \u00b1 2.37 vs. 11.95 \u00b1 2.45; p = 0.028), fat mass (11.08 \u00b1 2.51 vs. 8.95 \u00b1 2.67 kg; p = 0.049), and endomorphy (4.15 \u00b1 1.22 vs. 2.99 \u00b1 1.30; p = 0.002) than cutters. In contrast, cutters demonstrated higher speed (20 m sprint: 3.11 \u00b1 0.17 vs. 3.21 \u00b1 0.15 s; p &lt; 0.05), agility (10.16 \u00b1 0.69 vs. 10.69 \u00b1 0.61 s; p &lt; 0.05), and vertical jump performance (Counter Movement Jump: 40.93 \u00b1 6.54 vs. 36.38 \u00b1 4.71 cm; p &lt; 0.05; Abalakov: 46.39 \u00b1 7.88 vs. 40.20 \u00b1 4.68 cm; p &lt; 0.01). No differences were found in intermittent endurance (Yo-Yo Intermitent Recovery Test1): 982 \u00b1 354 vs. 940 \u00b1 348 m), upper-limb power, or dynamic balance. Conclusions: These findings indicate that playing position in UF is characterized by distinct body composition and lower-limb neuromuscular performance profiles, whereas intermittent endurance, upper-limb power, and balance represent shared physical requirements across positions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jfmk11010128","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,23]],"date-time":"2026-03-23T08:47:42Z","timestamp":1774255662000},"page":"128","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Beyond the Disc: Positional Differences in Morphological and Physical Performance Characteristics Among Male Ultimate Frisbee Players"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Cristian","family":"Hern\u00e1ndez","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Programa de Maestr\u00eda en Ciencias de Deporte, Universidad Santo Tom\u00e1s, Bucaramanga 681011, Colombia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mar\u00eda Alejandra","family":"Camacho-Villa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pain Study Group (GED), Physical Therapy School, Universidad Industrial de Santander, Bucaramanga 680002, Colombia"},{"name":"Performance and Health Group, Department of Physical Education and Sport, Faculty of Sports Sciences and Physical Education, University of A Coruna, 15001 A Coru\u00f1a, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nuria","family":"S\u00e1nchez-Hern\u00e1ndez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Physical Education and Sports Department, University of Valencia, 46010 Valencia, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Luis","family":"Gabriel Rangel Caballero","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Grupo Ser, Cultura y Movimiento, Facultad de Cultura F\u00edsica Deporte y Recreaci\u00f3n, Universidad Santo Tom\u00e1s, Bucaramanga 681011, Colombia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jorge","family":"G\u00f3mez-Camacho","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Programa de Maestr\u00eda en Ciencias de Deporte, Universidad Santo Tom\u00e1s, Bucaramanga 681011, Colombia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Juan Carlos","family":"Saavedra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Physical Activity and Sport Program, Unidades Tecnol\u00f3gicas, Bucaramanga 680006, Colombia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jorge Enrique","family":"Buitrago-Espitia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Body, Physical Activity and Sport Study Group (GECAFD), Sports Department, Universidad Industrial de Santander, Bucaramanga 680002, Colombia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Adri\u00e1n De la","family":"Rosa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Body, Physical Activity and Sport Study Group (GECAFD), Sports Department, Universidad Industrial de Santander, Bucaramanga 680002, Colombia"},{"name":"Freshage Research Group, Department of Physiology, Faculty of Medicine, University of Valencia, CIBERFES, Fundaci\u00f3n Investigaci\u00f3n Hospital Cl\u00ednico Universitario\/INCLIVA, 46010 Valencia, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"46","article-title":"Injuries from Ultimate Frisbee","volume":"105","author":"Reynolds","year":"2006","journal-title":"Wis.
