EXY RULES AND REGULATIONS

Hi. I recently got the italian edition of AFTG and I found three pages of exy rules and regulations at the start. Nothing that isn't already on the site (exy wiki), but I found this version to be waaay clearer and well organized.

So here is a messy translation. Many things are taken directly from the site; feel free to add to this and to correct me where I said something wrong.

Basic knowledge

An Exy game is played in two forty-five minute halves with a fifteen minute halftime break. An Exy court is 60 yards wide x 100 yards long x 10 yards tall. It is completely enclosed by half-inch thick plexiglass walls and roof, primarily made for rebounds and passing, but also to protect the audience from being hit by the ball. Both home and away have doors to allow players on and off the court. When the ball is in play, these doors must closed.

The court is divided into fourths by three equidistant lines: first-court, near the home goal, half-court, and far-court, near the away goal. Penalty shots are taken from marked spots halfway between first/far-court and the half-court goal (note: on the exy wiki it says that penalty shots are taken halfway between first/far-court and the home/away goal. I should probably check the books to determine witch one is right, but I don't have it in me rn. Please let me know if you find the correct version).

The Exy goals are on either end of the court. The actual goal is a 3x7 yard section on the wall, outlined by a bold line. The goalkeeper's territory is the 3x7 area directly in front of the goal, also marked by a line. Players are not allowed to cross the goal line. The boxed-in area of the goal wall is laden with sensors. Each goal counts as one point. When a ball strikes inside the goal, the wall lights up red. If ball that hits the goal's border, it doesn't count as a goal. The game's objective is to score more points then the opposing team.

Teams/Positions

There are four positions: striker, dealer, backliner, and goalkeeper. The striker is offense and plays to score. Strikers start the game on the half-court line; the strikers on the serving team start on the inside, strikers for the defending team are on the outside. The dealer serves and is thereafter the middleman; dealers have the option to specialize as offense or defense and can play as an extra striker or extra backliner depending on how the game is going. Dealers start on the first/far-court lines. The backliner is defense and protects the goal. Backliners start on the first/far-court lines. The goalkeeper guards the goal.

Six players per team are allowed on the court at a time. Generally speaking, this allows for two strikers, a dealer, two backliners, and the goalkeeper. The goalkeeper is optional; the coach may sacrifice the goalkeeper for an extra player under certain circumstances. The minimum size for an NCAA team is currently nine players, so that there can be six on-court players and a sub for each position - save the goalkeeper. After recent events this rule is under review and posited to increase to twelve.

Equipment

Racquet: Net depth varies by position. Dealers have the deepest nets so they can more easily carry the ball between offense and defense. Striker racquets are a bit shallower, still allowing them time to line up a perfect shot. Backliner racquets have just a little give, as backliners are strongly discouraged from carrying the ball; the longer a ball is near the goal the higher the chance an opposing striker can take possession of it. Goalkeeper racquets are flat. They are also the largest of the racquets, with a head that measures 1.5x2 feet. Goalkeeper racquets are also the longest allowed on court, with a shaft that tops out at 4 feet. Racquets for every other position have a range of 30-45 inches based on player height and preference. Racquet weights are also negotiable, as are the materials allowed in the construction. Generally speaking, offense racquets are made of aluminum (for lighter carry and more control), and heavy defense racquets are made of wood (for more power and force in challenges).

Ball: Roughly the size of a fist and weighted for rebounds.

Helmet: Required to be worn on the court at all times unless instructed otherwise by an official or unless the game is not in session. A visor goes in front of the eyes to allow a protected but unobstructed view of the court; grating protects the face from the nose down.

Armor: Chest and shoulder padding, neck guard, shin guards, arm guards, and armored gloves to protect the players' fingers. Optional: bandannas to keep hair out of one's face, armor to wear over one's thighs under one's shorts, and mouth guards (to prevent accidental injury during collisions)

Some fundamental rules

Off-sides is in effect on Exy courts. Meaning: an offense player who does not have possession of the ball, or who is moving to take possession of the ball, must have an opposing defense player between him or herself and the opposing goalkeeper at all times. This prevents strikers from waiting near the goal to score. The penalty for off-sides is loss of possession and a reset to the half-court line.

Body checks are allowed against players who have reasonable possession of the ball: that is, who currently have it, who have just relinquished it, or who are within a moment of receiving it. The player who currently has possession of the ball may body-check any other player with no restrictions. A faulty body check results in loss of possession and a reset to the next-closest court line.

Any other form of fighting is prohibited and will result in a card. The severity decides whether the card is yellow or red; it also determines whether a team deserves a penalty shot or a simple loss in possession. Games are restarted from where play was halted; the exact spot will be decided on by the residing referee. No other player may stand within ten feet of the dealer during a mid-play serve.

"Stick checks" are allowed only between racquets. A player who strikes another player's body with his or her racquet will be carded and the opposing team will receive a penalty shot. This includes using one's racquet to trip another player. A stick check against another player's helmet is an immediate red card and earns the wounded team a penalty shot on goal.

Balls may only be carried for 10 steps, at which point they must be passed. Acceptable passes are to a teammate, to oneself via a rebound, or a shot on goal.

One yellow card is a warning. Two result in the player sitting out the remainder of the game. A player who is red-carded is immediately expelled from the ongoing game and must sit out of the next one as well.

Exy games for youths and high schoolers require four referees at minimum. From the NCAA level upward six are required, three to either side of the court.

Goalkeepers are the only players allowed to touch the ball with their hands. Players cannot catch, kick, or otherwise interfere with the ball unless using their racquets. Violation of this is a stop-play and switch of possession.
