    A player is standing upright and they get hit in the face with a ball. There are:

    • In

    • Out

    Correct Answer

    A player blocks a throw with a ball they are holding. The impact of the block causes them to lose control of their ball. They are:

    • In

    • Out

    Correct Answer
    A. Out
    Explanation
    When a player blocks a throw with the ball they are holding and loses control of it, they are considered "out". This is because losing control of the ball indicates that the player did not successfully catch or maintain possession of it, which in turn means that they did not successfully block the throw. Therefore, the player is deemed "out" in this situation.

    The Billy West Rule states that:

    • If one or both knees are bent like a baseball catcher or on the ground, head shots count

    • If one or both knees are bent like a baseball catcher or on the ground, the ball becomes an extension of your body, and headshots count.

    • If one or both knees are bent like a baseball catcher or on the ground, the ball becomes an extension of your body.

    Correct Answer
    A. If one or both knees are bent like a baseball catcher or on the ground, the ball becomes an extension of your body, and headshots count.
    Explanation
    The Billy West Rule states that if one or both knees are bent like a baseball catcher or on the ground, the ball becomes an extension of your body. This means that any headshots made while in this position will count as valid shots.

    If you are behind the cones and a ball hits them you are:

    • In

    • Out

    • In, as long as you are retrieving a ball

    Correct Answer
    A. In, as long as you are retrieving a ball
    Explanation
    If you are behind the cones and a ball hits them, you are considered "In" as long as you are retrieving a ball. This means that you are still actively participating in the game and are involved in the play. Being "In" implies that you are within the designated playing area and are engaged in the activity.

    The headless horseman rule applies when

    • You are bent over, and, if your head was removed, the ball still would have hit you

    • When the Billy West rule is in effect

    • When there are 3 players left on each team

    • When the player is wearing glasses

    Correct Answer
    A. You are bent over, and, if your head was removed, the ball still would have hit you
    Explanation
    The headless horseman rule applies when you are bent over and if your head was removed, the ball still would have hit you. This suggests that the rule is designed to protect players who are in a vulnerable position and would have been hit by the ball regardless of whether their head was present or not. It implies that the rule takes into consideration the player's body position and the trajectory of the ball to determine if they should be considered out or not.

    • The primary rule and players should mainly self referee

    • A funny rule to say

    • In place for rare times that a referee does not see a play

    • A great excuse for everyone to yell at each other!

    Correct Answer
    A. In place for rare times that a referee does not see a play
    Explanation
    The Douche Bag Rule is in place for rare times that a referee does not see a play. This means that if a referee misses a certain play or call, the players can self-referee and make decisions on their own. It serves as a backup rule to ensure fairness and maintain the flow of the game in situations where the referee's judgment is not available.
