Infiniball
A contact based sport where the goal is to get the most points
A coliseum or any other circular playing field. Within the field, their are four playing areas that expand outwards from a point in the middle of the arena.
Pretty loose clothing restrictions as long as they are protective equipment. Players are also given the playing ball when it is needed.
The game is played between four teams of four players.
When a player successfully shoots the ball into the ring, they earn a point. In the first round, the score is one for every successful shot. Round two, points are worth double. Round three, triple. And round four, they are worth the most at x4.
When a player steps out of bounds for too long, they get a reduction on their points, and the shot won't count if they were out of bounds when they made it. Due to the physical nature of the game, you can be rough with the player who has the ball, but attacking someone who doesn't have the ball is a penalty.
Whichever team has the most collective points at the end wins.
There are four areas divided into threes that start from the scoring hoop and branch outwards. One member from each team goes to one of the areas farthest from the hoop so it becomes a 4v4 with a single ball dispensed between them. The players then have 10 minutes to score the most points they can by shooting the ball into the ring at the center of the coliseum. At the end, the 3 with the most points advance. Those players then advance to the middle most playing area, where they have 7 minutes and double points. Again, the top 2 players advance to the third area. They have 5 minutes, and triple points. Finally, 1 player from each of the four playing areas advances to the final playing area that is located directly under the hoop, so it again becomes a 4v4. They have 10 minutes again, and quadruple points. At the end of each round, if two or more players have the same amount of points, only those people will continue to play and whoever gets the next point advances.
The game has a total of 32 game time minutes. First round is 10 minutes, second is 7, third is 5, and the fourth and final round is also 10 minutes. There is a five minute break between the first three rounds, and a 15 minute break between the third and fourth.
No specific positions, but players are put together based on size and strength due to some species being more naturally strong or agile than others.
The game does get quite physical due to it being essentially a free-for-all to get the ball. Players can get bones broken, strained muscles, and definitely bruised.
Can depend on the player, as it doesn't matter how they get the ball in the hoop so long as it makes it. They can throw it, kick it, headbutt it, whatever they need to to make it in. Some players prefer to have stronger upper bodies, while others prefer to be more lean and focus on leg strength.
Players are given guidelines for what protective equipment they should have. Shoulder pads, chest plates, hip garters, and knee and elbow covers are the most common to see. Other than that, players are free to have their uniforms look however they want. The only restriction is that it does need to be obvious that certain players are on the same team, whether that is team name, color, or a matching logo.
Most popular in Ulsurtur due to it originating there and being the country sport, but is found worldwide.
