   A player who uses his feet to kick another player, or the equipment, could get thrown out of the game. There is no refund if this happens.
10. Rotation of Players
    Players can trade places with their goaler at any time. A game can also be played with 8 persons instead of 10 (goalers included), leaving one person on the bench. Those playing can then switch places, and get rested a bit, before returning to play more intensely.
11. Whistle Blow
    When a referee blows his whistle, the game must stop immediately. Players who go on pushing and shoving their rivals could get thrown out of the game. It’s the referee’s responsibility to ensure safety for both players and spectators.
12. Protective Gear
    While playing, you must stay inside the giant bubble provided, or the referee will stop the game. You must tell the referee if your bubble loses air or gets ripped ; the game will be stopped, and we will provide you with a new one. You have to make sure you don’t bump into people not wearing protective gear (either referee or spectator). We recommend you wear knee-guards.
13. Contact Between Bubbles
    As a safety precaution, and to prevent lower hip injuries, it is forbidden to voluntarily aim your bubble at another players’s legs. To avoid leg injuries, do not push another player against the wall, or in a corner. It is also forbidden to fiercely go at a player who does not have the ball, or a player who is down trying to get up. You must play the ball and follow the game. Do not bump another player without making sure he saw you first. You’re responsible for your actions, and the consequences thereof. Play safe and responsibly, help each other when needed, or you can get thrown out of the game. There is no refund if this happens.
