Please note that we are playing the LHBPA rules, which differ very slightly from the NAH rules, specifically relating to overtime.

Overtime
7.1 – A game will go into overtime if it is a tied match on the elimination rounds.
7.2 – When the time runs out, the referee must announce the beginning of overtime by calling “golden goal”.
7.2.1 – The game continues into "extra time" without interruption.
7.3 – The match will be decided by the first team to score.**
We will NOT stop the game at the end of regulation time, and restart with a joust, as in the NAH rules.
I would also draw all teams' attention to the following:
**
2.4 – Player safety gear.
2.4.1 – Helmets are mandatory.
2.4.2 – Further body protection is recommended.
2.5 – Uniforms.
2.5.1 – Teams are required to wear matching colors.**
In the event that there are two teams wearing the same colour (both teams in black, for example), one team will change strip, or wear coloured bibs (supplied by the tournament organisers).
Attention all teams!
