Players under the age of 18 will need a parent/guardian to sign a safety waiver at registration. 6-on-6 Dodgeball Tournament Rules 1. Each team must consist of six players. 2. Each game will be an elimination game. Game will end when all opponents on one side have been eliminated. 3. This is a single elimination tournament. 4. The game will begin with both teams lined up on their end line. When the official signals the start of play, players may run up and retrieve balls from the center line. Dodgeballs must be taken behind attack line before they can be thrown. 5. An “out” is: • Hitting an opposing player below the shoulders. • Catching a ball thrown by an opponent before it hits the ground. • HEADSHOTS WILL NOT COUNT AS A HIT! If you purposefully hit an opposing player in the head, you will be out. 6. Players who get eliminated will stand in a line on their team’s sideline in the order they got out in. Teams can get their eliminated players back in one at time by catching a ball thrown by their opponent. 7. Blocking with a ball is allowed. If you lose control of the ball or drop it while blocking with it, you are out. You may catch a ball that was blocked by your teammate. The opposing player who threw the ball will then be out. 8. Players must stay within the boundaries. If you go out of bounds, you will be out. The only time you may go out of bounds is to retrieve a ball. 9. If both teams stop throwing for a 10 second time period, the official will begin a countdown from five. All balls must be thrown by the time the official reaches one. 10. All calls remain the decision of the court official. 11. Alcohol is not allowed in common areas or at tournaments. 12. Foul language, taunting opponents, and other disruptive actions are not allowed and may result in expulsion from the tournament.
