As a participant or volunteer it is your responsibility to know and understand the rules as they are currently structured. Please diligently read through the rules. If you have any questions or concerns you will be given opportunity to voice them at the start of the tournament, Saturday, June 11, 2011 at 9am.
Safety equipment is mandatory at this event. Helmets are required. All other personal safety gear is up to each individual participant, as long as it is in compliance with general safety protocol for everyone playing. It is required that your bike and mallet is safe as well. Bar-ends must be capped in some fashion, and mallet ends must also be capped/closed off. The mallet heads must also be in 'safe' condition for use. Each team will be inspected before being allowed to play. Make sure you're aware of the condition of your equipment before the tournament begins! This is already a slightly more dangerous sport than others, let's all do our part to keep it as safe as it can be!
Thank you!
