The Tournament will take place the morning of January 26th at 11am.
The tournament will be double elimination, with every team guaranteed two games. Each match will be a best two out of three games. Games will last five minutes or until every player on one team is eliminated. Other rules below
- Each team of 5 must have at least one male and one female on the court to start the game
- Players will start on the back line, and run to gather balls at the middle line once the game begins. Once you retrieve a ball you must take that ball to the back line to make it live.
- A player is out if
- A ball hits them anywhere on their body before hitting the floor, walls or another player.
- An opponent catches the ball
- If team A throws a ball and team B catches it, the player who threw the ball from team A is eliminated. A player who has been eliminated from team B can rejoin the game. This is in order of first out, first in.
- Players can catch the ball if deflected off their own body, a ball in their possession, or a teammate.
- A player may use a ball in their possession to block a ball thrown at them. Once the ball is blocked it becomes dead (UNLESS: the player who blocks the ball drops the ball they used to block – in that case the player is out)
- Players may only hold onto balls for 15 seconds once they pick them up
- Players may leave the field to retrieve a ball, but must enter from the backline to rejoin play. They are not eligible to be hit, catch a ball or attack once they leave the boundary.
- The game ends when all players from one team are eliminated, or at the end of the 5 minute timer the team with the fewest people remaining loses. If there are the same number of people left, it will be a sudden death situation where the next person to be eliminated’s team will lose the game.
