Time Limits
There is a time limit for games so coaches are encouraged to play 4 minute turns to ensure games are completed. Any games other than game 1 that reach the time limit will have to be halted and the result at this point will be the final result of that game. Game 1 may be played into lunch only if both coaches agree this with the TO at the start of lunch.
The Steel Ball
The Steelbowl is named after the famous heavy steel lined ball used in all its games!
When the ball is kicked off two D6 are rolled for scatter and the lowest result is picked to determine the scatter distance. In addition it is not affected by the gentle gust of wind from the 'Changing Weather' result from the kick off table. The distance of the the ball being thrown in by the crowd is unaffected.
When the steel ball is thrown, thrown in or kicked off, it will not bounce if it lands in an unoccupied square. If it lands in a square with a prone or stunned player make an Armour roll for the player before the ball bounces. If they are removed from play as a result, the ball does not bounce.
Schedule
The round 1 match will be randomly determined. In the following rounds players will be ranked by points total and paired off into matches e.g. 1st vs 2nd, 3rd vs. 4th etc. Where players are tied on points and so there are no clear pairings, the match ups will also be determined by combined casualty and touchdown difference and then Strength of Schedule.

• 10:00 – 12:15: Match 1
• 12:15– 12:45: Lunch
• 12:45 – 15:00: Match 2

Tournament points are scored as follows for each match:
50 points for a win
