Rules of Play

Four On Four is a specialty event where there are four players on a side, with each player holding a single rod.

Rule 1. Change of Positions
1. If a team scores a point, they must rotate positions before the next point: the player on the three-man rod moves to the goalie-rod, while the players on the goalie, two-man, and five-man rods move to the two- man, five-man, and three-man rods respectively.
2. A team may also change positions before the start of the match or between games. However, no other changes of positions will be allowed.

Rule 2. Legal Shots
1. The game is played rollerball style, i.e., a ball may not be pinned for more than three seconds or stopped for more than one second, and there is a ten second time limit per rod.
2. Once a ball is stopped or pinned, the player must make sure the ball touches another man of the same team (on any rod) in order to score a point.
3. If a point is scored illegally, the ball shall be re-served by the opposing team.

Rule 3. Time Outs
You are allowed two time outs.
