How do gender ratio rules work in mixed ultimate?

Q: How do gender ratio rules work in mixed ultimate?

Under the WFDF Rules (Rule 5.4), mixed games should use an alternating 4:3 ratio: each point is played with either 4 female-matching and 3 male-matching players, or 3 female-matching and 4 male-matching players. The event must say which ratio rule it uses (WFDF Appendix A6): Ratio Rule A ("prescribed ratio"), required at all WFDF events: After the first disc flip, a second flip decides who picks the ratio for point 1. Points 2 and 3 use the reverse ratio, points 4 and 5 go back to the first ratio, and so on, switching every two points. Half time does not change the pattern. Prescribed pull: the pull must be thrown by a player of the gender that has 4 on the field. Breaking this is treated as an offside violation. Ratio Rule B ("end zone decides"): A second disc flip decides which end zone is "End zone A". In the first half, the team at End zone A chooses the ratio at the start of each point; in the second half, the team at End zone B chooses. Making match-ups easy to see: captains should agree a method at the start; the preferred one is that the offence's players of the gender with 4 on the field stand on the end zone line giving the ratio hand signal for 5 seconds. At WFDF events, a mixed team must have 4 female-matching and 4 male-matching players available for every point. If a point starts without the correct ratio, the opposition can call a violation.

Under the WFDF Rules (Rule 5.4), mixed games should use an alternating 4:3 ratio: each point is played with either 4 female-matching and 3 male-matching players, or 3 female-matching and 4 male-matching players. The event must say which ratio rule it uses (WFDF Appendix A6):

Ratio Rule A ("prescribed ratio"), required at all WFDF events:

After the first disc flip, a second flip decides who picks the ratio for point 1.
Points 2 and 3 use the reverse ratio, points 4 and 5 go back to the first ratio, and so on, switching every two points. Half time does not change the pattern.
Prescribed pull: the pull must be thrown by a player of the gender that has 4 on the field. Breaking this is treated as an offside violation.

Ratio Rule B ("end zone decides"):

A second disc flip decides which end zone is "End zone A". In the first half, the team at End zone A chooses the ratio at the start of each point; in the second half, the team at End zone B chooses.

Making match-ups easy to see: captains should agree a method at the start; the preferred one is that the offence's players of the gender with 4 on the field stand on the end zone line giving the ratio hand signal for 5 seconds.

At WFDF events, a mixed team must have 4 female-matching and 4 male-matching players available for every point. If a point starts without the correct ratio, the opposition can call a violation.
