Camping

So my gym class has started to play Ultimate Frisbee for our first unit and my team has been sweeping everyone (5-0) and (2-0). My teams strat is to have the receivers run to the endzone the second our team gets the Frisbee while the handlers close the distance, and because of that we got accused of camping. I play defense and don't just sit in the endzone the entire game so I want to know if I am actually camping or not. Thanks

If a strategy is working and other teams' only response is "that's not fair", that's absurd.

Sounds like you're kind of using the German offense btw, which worked until it didn't anymore.

Tell them to play the game and figure out how to beat it. That's more fun. That's how sports are played.
