1. Burden WILL be enforced to avoid stalling and keep the game going at a steady pace. Burden will work as follows: whichever team has the majority of balls must get rid of that majority within 10 seconds of when Burden was called or that team will forfeit all balls in their possession. The ref will start a timer once Burden has been called and will announce  the time remaining as it runs down
2. All calls made by the referee will be final. If for any reason you have an issue with a call made by the referee, you may voice your issue to the referee in a calm and collected manner outside of the arena. 
3. You will be considered out if:

• You are hit with a ball anywhere on your body. Head shots are not encouraged but will be considered an out. This also includes any clothing or hats worn while playing.

• If a live ball is caught before being declared dead, the player who threw the ball will be considered out.
