Hi, I have observed a recurring play in even high-level matches where:

1. The disc goes out-of-bounds, and the offense team calls “Brick”.
2. An offensive player (#1) picks up the disc.
3. #1 passes the disc to teammate #2 waiting on the brick mark.
4. #2 waits for a check from a defensive player before the game restarts.
While this speeds up gameplay, I haven’t found a rule explicitly confirming its legality.

since the “Brick” call can be made by any offensive player and someone else can pick it up, the marker guarding #1 could technically anticipate their intent and immediately move to mark them at the brick mark.

The current format, can potentially lead to unsportsmanlike conduct, as the defender marking #1 might constantly wait them at the brick mark assuming they will initiate the play.

To prevent this situation, I propose introducing the requirement for a check on player #2, if he is not the player who picked up the disc, adding that all player can keep moving and that in this situation you don’t have to check the disc

Thank you for your time and consideration.

This is not allowed – see rule 8.3: The thrower may not transfer possession of the disc during dead play to another player.
