Kinetic Champions LeagueRules and Gameplay

Main Rules

Each season will consist of 6 uniquely identifiable teams
Five on five, 10 players on the court at once. There is a minimum of two replacement players on the bench.

Must have at least two members of the opposite sex on the floor as identified by the individual.

Each round will allow for a 1 minute time out that can only be initiated by the gamemaster or team coach.

In instances of injury, disputes, or otherwise forced stop in gameplay, a team will be allotted up to 5 minutes to settle the dispute. The gamemaster will issue the final decision if the resolution is not reached.
The team with the most points wins. The teams score when the Tachball goes to the goal.

Each team will compete a minimum of 2 times before elimination
If a team can battle back, they may compete up to 5 times before securing the championship.

The court is divided into five boxes of equal size, 50' X 20'.
One 12-foot tall rotating goal at center court in red zone.
Tachballs are stored in the goal when scored.
Two cores, one in each black zone. Cores reset Shutdown suits and provide Tachballs.

Telemetry devices will be used to help determine player posting during gameplay.
The field will be synthetic turf, allowing the rubber balls to be compressed.

By zones (three points red, two points gray, one point black).
Only one ball can be taken out per team, and there are no stockpiling balls.
Seven balls per round per team. Each ball comes out after 10 seconds.
If one side misses a shot and the opposing side recovers the ball and subsequently scores, the points are doubled for that shot (six, four, and two).
Once seven balls are scored by either team, the round ends. The remaining seconds are added as bonus points.

The Game Master will be responsible for safety; their word is final.
Before each round, the players' Arm Canon will be tested and certified.
The players' Shutdown suits will also be tested and certified. A player failing certification will be rendered unfit to play that round.

(1) Striker. Their job is to score by throwing the Tachball into the goal.
Only slingers are permitted in the red zone, and incidental contact is only permitted between Slingers in the red zone.
If contact is deemed extreme and detrimental to gameplay, the Game Commander can stop the round and order the Slinger replaced. They do not have any shields or blasters.
(2) Gaurdian. Protects the Slinger. Equipment: shield and blaster with 25 blasts per round.
(2) Forward Attackers. Prevent the opposing Slinger from scoring—equipment: blaster with 100 blasts per round.

Forearm blasters will use compressed air and push the half-inch rubber ball at speeds less than 200 feet per second. The blasters will have a container holding in a limited number of balls.
A blast will initiate by squeezing the player's fist. This expresses the compressed air and propels the balls forward towards the opposing player.

Players will wear padding under their jerseys to protect them from blasters.
Each Shutdown suit will have five energy power bars. A power bar is lost when an opponent's blast strikes a player.
Once five energy units are lost, magnetic resistance in the player's elbows slows their movement.
To reset the device, a player will return to the core and touch it for 10 seconds, and then they can go back into the action.

Ankle braces, knee braces, and cleated boots must be worn at all times on the field of play.
