The game will be played with the size of the lesser team (e.g. if one team has players for only a half team, the other team will also play with a half team)
The field size is ideally ca. 80x50 meters and the field is marked. There are two buckets placed before each of the narrower edges (in future referred as goal lines). One bucket is marked red, the other one blue.
Before the game starts it is decided by chance, who will have the ball. The other team may then choose their side. Both teams will start at their goal line.
The goal of the game is to get the ball into the bucket of the opponent (across the field). The game is played for seven rounds. One round lasts until:
a) one team places the ball into the opponents bucket
b) during a sports game, maximum 10 minutes.
Sports game rules:
Every hit with a weapon will remove one hit point. All hits count, even glancing ones. There are no restricted areas. The hits should be light tapping, not blows with full force.
When hit (hit points=0) the wounded player has to lie or kneel down immediately and may rise only after 15 seconds have passed (after that he is no more wounded and has maximum hit points for his position). Everybody counts their own seconds, quietly in their head. When the runner is hit, he must let go of the ball at once.
Holding a weapon on the person lying or kneeling on the ground, prevents him from moving or getting up. But he will still count his 15 seconds. If he has reached 15 but the weapon is still held against his body, he can not move or act. But the moment the weapon is removed, he can act as normal.
Physical contact and shield bashing is allowed. (No striking with hands or feet though.)
We’ll remind once more, ONLY THE RUNNER, may touch the ball. If the ball crosses the fields edge, it will be given to the opposing team. If someone other from the team, touches the ball, it will be given to the opponents. The ball can not be used to block blows. A blow to the ball is the same as a blow to the runner.
Every time the referees yell STOP or sound a signal, every player has to drop to one knee, keep still and keep silent. There will be another signal to continue the game.
