Sportsmanship
We are here for the fun of the game. Sportsmanship is not encouraged from the coaches it is required!
Fouling 16 turns in a row and running up the score is not poor sportsmanship, but gloating and ridiculing your opponent while doing so is.

The following awards will be given out after the last round (subject to attendance):
• Champion
• Runner Up

• Most Brutal (most CAS by block and foul actions)
• Stunty Champion (top placing Stunty team)
• Fan Favorite (Highest Dedicated Fans)
• Player’s Choice (Appearance, voted by peers)
• Best Sportsman (voted by peers)
• Dust In The Wind (lowest in standings)
Spread the Wealth
A coach may only win one award. If they are in line to win more than one award, they will be asked which one they would prefer and the next coach in line will be given the other award. Tournament organizers reserve the right to adjust the awards as deemed necessary.
KICK OFF TABLE
2 Hold them back! - To contain the crowd, stadium security puts up barriers between the action on the field and the bleachers. For the rest of the game, if a player (unless being thrown by teammate) or bouncing ball would cross the sideline or end line, it stops in the square adjacent to the boundary. If it is a bouncing ball in the same square as a player, bounce it again until it would not go out of bounds. If a player would be pushed out of bounds, he instead is Knocked Down and +2 is added to the Armor roll.
Any subsequent rolls of 2 or 12 on this table for the remainder of the game are treated as a Crowd-Fueled Frenzy.
3 Smuggled Pogo Stick - Each coach rolls 2D6 and adds their Fan Factor. The winning coach (or both in case of a tie) chooses a player on his team. The player(s) gains the Pogo Stick and Dirty Player skills for the rest of the game. If the chosen player(s) has the Fan Favorite skill, they additionally gain the Sneaky Git skill.
4 Pitch Invasion (receiving) – Apply the Pitch Invasion result from the main rulebook Kick-Off event table except both coaches roll 2D6 instead of D6.
If this result is chosen via Dueling Crowd Chants, the receiving team automatically wins the roll and the result of the D3 is treated as 3.
5 Bountygate - If this result is chosen via Dueling Crowd Chants, the receiving team gains one team Reroll or one Bribe that is lost if not used by the end of the drive.
Otherwise, each coach rolls 2D6 and adds their Fan Factor and the number of assistant coaches on their team. The coach with the higher total (or both if tied) gains a Bribe that is lost if not used by the end of the drive.
6 Hurry-Up Offense – The receiving team chooses Quick Snap or High Kick and applies that result from the main rulebook kickoff table.
If this result is chosen via Dueling Crowd Chants, apply both Quick Snap and High Kick.
7 Dueling Crowd Chants - Each coach rolls 2D6 and adds their Fan Factor to the roll.If the total is a tie or the coach with the higher total does not choose to modify the Kick-Off Table result, make a new roll on the Weather table and apply it.
Otherwise, the winning coach may choose to modify the Kick-Off table result by up to 3 according to the difference in the totals
Difference Kicking Receiving
1-5 +1 -1
6-10 +2 -2

8 Intimidation Tactics – All players on the kicking team gain the Fend skill for the next turn.
If this result is chosen via Dueling Crowd Chants, additionally on the next turn, any player on the kicking team nominated as the target of a blitz action gains the Foul Appearance skill for that action.
9 Distracting Cheerleaders - If this result is chosen via Dueling Crowd Chants, the kicking team gains one team Reroll or one Bribe that is lost if not used by the end of the drive.
Otherwise, each coach rolls 2D6 and adds their Fan Factor and the number of cheerleaders on their team. The coach with the higher total (or both if tied) gains a team Reroll that is lost if not used by the end of the drive.
10 Pitch Invasion (kicking) – Apply the Pitch Invasion result from the main rulebook Kick-Off event table except both coaches roll 2D6 instead of D6.
If this result is chosen via Dueling Crowd Chants, the kicking team automatically wins the roll and the result of the D3 is treated as 3.
11 For the remainder of the drive, +1 added to all armor rolls during Foul actions for both teams. Players with the Fan Favorite skill add an additional +1 to armor rolls for their Foul actions and +1 to Argue the Call rolls if they are caught by the ref, applying natural 1 normally.
12 We can’t hold them any longer! - The crowd's frenzy compels them to encroach on the field to get closer to the action. All squares adjacent to the sideline count as out of bounds for the rest of the game.
Any subsequent rolls of 2 or 12 on this table for the remainder of the game are treated as Crowd-Fueled Frenzy. |
