The first team to eliminate the opposing team wins. If neither team has been eliminated after regulation time (5 minutes), the team with more remaining players wins. If an equal number of players remain after regulation time, a sudden death period will decide the winner. Six shooters each have one ball to throw at one defender (30 seconds maximum time limit). The number of hits is recorded, the roles are reversed. The team with the most hits will be declared the winner.

How are teams classified?
A team is placed in a division based on the highest grade on the team. Ex.
How many divisions are there? What grade levels will play together?
Divisions are determined by registration. We won’t know which grades will play together or the divisions until registration is complete.
How do you determine the brackets?
We look at the team composition – team size, grade level make-up, and gender and do our best to pair like teams together in the first round(s).
What size balls do you use?
We use 6″ foam dodgeballs for the event.
