TOURNAMENTS

Provided we have 6 teams registered at each Community Run, we will play a 3-way tournament at each event (Remember one Community Run is composed of 4 events). Teams will be rotated at each event so you will play against all the teams in that Run multiple times. A win will be worth 3 points, a draw 1 point and a loss 0 points. The team with most points will be awarded Community Run winner. Afer each community Run, we will have 1 or 2 weeks off and then will start the next Run where each team will have to register again.

There will be safeguarding officials and 1st aid qualified individuals present at all events. Coaches/Leaders are also responsible for the team throughout the tournament.

 

BASIC GAME RULES (THESE SERVE AS GUIDANCE BUT CAN BE ADAPTED ON THE DAY IF APPROPRIATE)

In order to save time we will play in one direction only. I.e. no half time. Coin toss will offer the team to chose direction.

Teams will be allowed 1 x 30sec time out.

Players will foul out at 4 fouls. Team fouls after the 6th foul.

No stopping the clock at any time except when requested by the referee at the last minute of the game.

There will be 1 x referee per game. Referees may not be level 2 qualified referees but they will at least be level 2 qualified coaches with experience.
