BINHO BOARD TOURNAMENT

BINHO BOARD RULES

​

GAMEPLAY:

​

The game starts with the ball at center field.

​

First to shoot is to be determined by the players on the field with rock, paper, scissors or a coin flip. If the player who won the previous match is still on the board, they shoot first.

Teams then alternate shooting from where the ball comes to a complete stop.

​

If playing 2 on 2 the shot still alternates between the teams: team one(t1)/player one(p1) shoots, t2/p1 shoots, t1/p2 shoots, t2/p2 shoots and repeat.

​

If the ball is up against the sideline or baseline, the player shooting the ball may only move the band back with his/her shooting hand.

​

When the ball is against the bands, you may flick from behind the bands (with your fingers technically out of bounds).

​​

Winner is the first team to score 7 goals.

​

The ball must COMPLETELY cross the goal line if viewed from in front of the goal to be a goal (there should be turf visible if the ball crosses completely over the line). It is still a goal if the ball crosses the goal line and bounces out.

​

After each goal, the team that was scored on kicks off from center field.

​

Player who wins the flip chooses the player to be lost for the rest of the match. After a red, the cards reset.

​

​

BALL IS SHOT OUT OF BOUNDS - If the ball is shot out of bounds from outside of your own box, it is a yellow card. If it is shot out of bounds from within their own box, it is a red card.

​

MOVING THE BOARD WHILE SHOOTING - It is a yellow card if the board moves while the player is in the act of shooting, and it is a red card if done within their own box.

​

TOUCHING THE CROSSBAR OF THE GOAL - Touching the crossbar of the goal with your finger on any shot is an automatic red card.

​

CROSSING THE MIDFIELD LINE WITH YOUR HEAD WHILE SHOOTING - The shooting player's head cannot cross the midfield line during his or her shot.
