Paperball is a very new and
exciting game. It is a one-on-one game that is played on a hard court about the size of a tennis court. It has a similarity
to Soccer in that it is a game involving a ball that cant be touched with the hands. The ball however, is considerably smaller.
It is slightly large than a golf ball, but is much heavier. Paperball is very aggressive. Players try to get past one another
to score. Players may push the other and force them out of the way. But pushing a player with too much force could result
in a penalty. To score, the ball must cross the base-line completely while the player who hit it last was standing in the
score zone. If the ball crosses the base-line while the player touching it last was out of the score zone, then ball is called
"out of bounds", and the opposing player gets posession. The player who scores the most in the two 15 minute periods wins.
If there is a tie, there will be a five minute over-time. If there is still no winner, there will be a sudden-death period,
where the player to score first, wins the game. Each team has three time-outs to use throughout the entire game. Each team
has five players on it, but only one player per team may play at a time.
