Golden Rule

First and foremost all JAX Fray leagues are 50% Social and 50% Sport. We do have officials; however, we expect individuals to respect the league’s culture of fair and fun play. Foul language and rough play will not be tolerated and individuals who cannot adhere to our standards of fair play and sportsmanship may be asked to leave the league. JAX Fray wants everyone to have a fun and be social while enjoying a great sport. JAX Fray will do whatever they can to make sure all players are having fun.

Teams

JAX Fray is proud to relieve captains of the burden of paying for full teams. While captains and players are able to prepay for additional players and or full teams, it is not a requirement for participation in our leagues. We welcome individual player payments.

We are also proud to welcome those who do not have a full team (small groups and free agents) to participate in our league.

Our primary mission is to make it easier for people to have fun and get involved with social sports and these policies help accomplish that goal.

Because of these policies, all registrations are on a first come first serve basis and any roster that does not reach our standard size (based on each sport) is eligible to receive free agents and or small group by the league. Rosters made up of primarily free agents and or a collection of small groups may field more players than the standard roster size. This policy is in place to help ensure free agent teams are able to consistently field teams each week.

1. Each Team must consist of a minimum of 16 Players and a maximum of 30 Players.

2. Each Team may have a maximum of 11 players on the field.

A. Teams are expected to field a minimum of 3 men and 3 women in the field while on defense. If a Team is only able to field 2 men/women in the field, that Team may only field a maximum of 6 of the opposite gender.

B. Teams who do not meet the minimum team requirements will be given 15 minutes to assemble the necessary roster. As soon as both teams have the expected minimum, per the eligibility guidelines, the game will start. Failure to meet the team requirement within 15 minutes will result in a forfeit.

That 15 minute grace period is taken out of that game’s playing time and the game is still limited to its original time length.

3. Each Team must have a minimum of 6 men and 6 women on their roster.

4. Teams must designate a Captain and Co-Captain prior to the start of the game. These are the only Team members allowed to argue all calls

A. NO PLAYER, including the Captain and Co-Captain, may verbally abuse or argue in an unsportsmanlike manner to any Referee. Such action is grounds for immediate ejection and possible suspension or expulsion from the Division if the Host or JAX Fray staff deems it appropriate.

5. Team Captains are required to provide their teams kicking order to the opposing Team upon request. Once a game has started, the lineup cannot be changed except for injury or illness. Eligible Players may be added to the end of the kicking lineup if arriving to the game late.

6. Any use of ineligible players will result in a Team forfeit.

7. If a player kicks out of roster order that player is out.

8. During the regular season, any registered JAX Fray player for that division may serve as a sub for a team under the minimum team requirement.

9. During the playoffs, teams may not use subs and may only use players on their roster.

10. Playoff Eligibility: teams that notch 2 or more forfeits during the regular season will not be eligible for the playoffs.

A. In rare circumstances, a Base-runner and Fielder in the act of making a play on the ball may collide due to Base-runner/Fielder movement.

A. An Overthrow allows a Base-runner to advance up to 1 base beyond the base they were running toward when the ball traveled into foul territory.

B. If the defense attempts to make a play on the Base-runner while advancing after an overthrow, all Base-runners may attempt to advance as many bases as they choose. It is up to the Head Referee’s discretion as to what constitutes the defense ‘making a play’ on the runner.

C. If a ball is thrown at a Base-runner and contacts that runner while not on base and deflects into foul territory, the runner is out and the ball is live. All other Base-runners may attempt to advance as many bases as they choose.

Dead Ball Plays

1. If a Base-runner intentionally touches the ball, the runner is out, the play is dead, and any other Base-runners must return to the base they were on at the beginning of the play.

2. If a fair ball becomes trapped in any object, or a Fielder faces an impediment in getting to the ball, the runner shall be awarded a ground-rule double, and all other Base-runners may advance 2 bases beyond the base they began the play on.

A. In obvious cases, the Head Referee has the discretion to award the Kicker and Base-runners whatever base s/he realistically believed they would have reached had there not been an obstruction.

Golden Rule

First and foremost all JAX Fray leagues are 50% Social and 50% Sport. We do have officials; however, we expect individuals to respect the league’s culture of fair and fun play. Foul language and rough play will not be tolerated and individuals who cannot adhere to our standards of fair play and sportsmanship may be asked to leave the league. JAX Fray wants everyone to have a fun and be social while enjoying a great sport. USS will do whatever they can to make sure all players are having fun.

General

JAX Fray is proud to relieve captains of the burden of paying for full teams. While captains and players are able to prepay for additional players and or full teams, it is not a requirement for participation in our leagues. We welcome individual player payments.

We are also proud to welcome those who do not have a full team (small groups and free agents) to participate in our league.

Our primary mission is to make it easier for people to have fun and get involved with social sports and these policies help accomplish that goal.

Because of these policies, all registrations are on a first come first serve basis and any roster that does not reach our standard size (based on each sport) is eligible to receive free agents and or small group by the league. Rosters made up of primarily free agents and or a collection of small groups may field more players than the standard roster size. This policy is in place to help ensure free agent teams are able to consistently field teams each week.

Here is the roster size chart for JAX Flag Football. And click here for a list of all sports and their roster size policies.

7. The kicking team may not cross the line of scrimmage until the ball is kicked.

8. The receiving team may not raise hands or jump to block a punt.

9. If a punt is “shanked” and caught it is a live ball and is returnable. If the ball comes into contact with the ground after it has been punted it is a dead ball, spotted at the point where it hit the ground, and may not be returned.

ii. A fumble is not a turnover. The ball is dead at the point of the fumble and the offense retains possession.

viii. The slate is clean for extra points and punts and everyone is eligible.

Penalties

a. Normal rules and penalties of the NCAA apply unless exceptions have been made herein.

2. If this contact is deemed excessive by the ref, an “unnecessary roughness” penalty of ten (10) paces/yards can be assessed in addition to the “illegal contact”. Thus making the total penalty fifteen (15) paces/yards.

ii.  Down Field:

1. If the illegal contact occurs during play when the offense is advancing the ball the penalty will be a mark off of five (5) paces/yards from the point where the ball carrier is at the time of the infraction.

– The offensive team may not initiate a pick/ block while in motion.

– The penalty for this is a five (5) pace/yard penalty from the line of scrimmage. If a catch is made after a clear pick, it will be ruled no catch, five (5) pace/yard penalty from line of scrimmage.

Golden Rule

First and foremost all JAX Fray leagues are 50% Social and 50% Sport. We do have hosts; however, we expect individuals to respect the league’s culture of fair and fun play. Foul language and rough play will not be tolerated and individuals who cannot adhere to our standards of fair play and sportsmanship may be asked to leave the league. JAX Fray wants everyone to have a fun and be social while enjoying a great sport. JAX Fray will do whatever they can to make sure all players are having fun.

Teams

1. Groups must have at least 8 rollers on their roster to be elevated to Team status, however, the league reserves the right to place free agent rollers on teams with fewer than 12 rollers.  12 rollers are the max number of players able to compete during a single match. It is encouraging that teams have 12-15 rollers on their roster for the times when individuals are unable to attend.

2. Each team will have a captain, who will be the official representative to the league and will be responsible for communicating messages from the league. A co-captain is also highly encouraged.

3. Players must be registered (and paid in full) to play and to be counted towards a group’s Team status.

Game Play

1. A match will consist of two teams rolling 12 regular frames and one specialty frame. Each frame is one full game with 9 rolled balls. Every team member present and able to play must roll at least one full frame (9 balls) unless more than 12 players are present.

2. Each team must have a minimum of 4 rollers per game. No player may roll more than 3 frames in any given game. If only two or three players show they may play but their score will be capped at their best 6 or 9 frames respectively.

3. Teams will roll on the same lane throughout the match. If teams wish to choose their lane prior to the start of a match Captains or a designated player will play Rock Paper Scissors for the choice of lane.

4. Every ball must be rolled while standing with both feet on the ground and located behind the machines (i.e., no rolling from the side of the lane) Violating this rule will result in a score of zero for balls rolled during the infraction.

5. Any shot thrown while observing the previous rules and counted by the machine (including Bank shots) are permitted.

6. Balls that fail to enter the scoring zone and roll or otherwise return to the thrower are able to be re-thrown.

Scoring

1. Skeeball scores presented on the machines screen will be divided by 10 (the zero dropped) to simplify scoring.
2. Each Roller will roll one full frame (9 balls) as their contribution to their team’s score.
   1. If Players are unhappy with their first score they may choose to roll the 2nd frame, however if a second game is rolled the score from that game will count even if it is lower than the original roll.
   2. If a player chooses to roll the second frame they must first wait for their opponent to finish their first frame. At this point, they may announce “I’m rolling again” and may proceed to begin their 2nd game.
   3. Players choosing to roll the second frame must choose to do so BEFORE the 3rd ball is rolled by their opponent if they too opted for a 2nd frame. Rollers may NOT wait for their opponent to finish their 2nd game before attempting to roll their own 2nd game.
3. Frame scores will be divided by 10 for addition purposes, and the team with the highest combination of their 12 frames will be the winner.
4. Spirit Points: Teams have the ability to win extra  points based on creating an organized cheer.
   1. 100 Points: Teams that create a cheer using their opponents name as inspiration (either in a supportive nature or tongue in cheek) will win 100 points.
   2. 50 Points: Teams that create a cheer using their own team name or otherwise supporting themselves without mention of the opposing team will win 50 points.
   3. Time limit & other details: Spirit cheers must be completed before the 10th frame concludes. Teams may not excessively hold up the progress of the game to compile a cheer at the last moment. Additionally, teams are only eligible for either the 50 or 100 additional bonus points. Both teams are able to win these points IE both teams can cheer for the other team and can win 100 spirit points. Note: As with all scores in Skeeball we drop the zero from points awarded – This means that 100 would be 10 and 50 would be 5 in this application.
5. 5. After the 6th frame of each match, a mystery round will be played. The mystery round will result in a score of “10″ for the winning team and “0″ for the losing team. The following specialty rounds are selected and played at the discretion of the host.
6. A. Speed: Both teams will present one roller who will each begin to throw their balls at the command of the host. The first player to roll all of their balls and have the machine flash game over or for their score to flash will be considered the winner.
7. B. Relay: Each member of the team present will roll one of the 9 balls. If less than 9 players are present the team will rotate through their players in the same order as they began the frame. (I.E Rollers Bob, Jane, Jack, Kelly, will continue in the same order until all 9 balls are rolled) The team with the highest score wins that round.
8. C. Speed Relay: Using the above relay rules the winning team will be decided not by the total score but by the first team to have their machine count all 9 balls rolled and the game to be declared over, indicated by the flashing score or the Game Over message.
9. D. Blind Folded: One roller will be blindfolded and led to the machine where they will roll one full frame (9 balls). Teammates may assistance through verbal direction but are not allowed to physically aid the blinded folded roller. The top score between the two teams wins the round.

Scoring or Machine Malfunctions

1. Players are advised that the league plays on a variety ages, models, and styles, of machines and that scoring errors, are an inescapable aspect of the game. When a scoring error is made it is the responsibility of the witnessing party to IMMEDIATELY bring the scoring error to the attention of the other team and host. If both captains are able to agree upon the alternation of the score to fix the machine error the game may continue. If captains are unable to agree then the host will make a judgment ruling given the testimony of the captains and their personal knowledge of the machines.

JAX Fray Ultimate Frisbee Rules & Guidelines

Golden Rule

First and foremost all JAX Fray leagues are 50% Social and 50% Sport. We do have officials; however, we expect individuals to respect the league’s culture of fair and fun play. Foul language and rough play will not be tolerated and individuals who cannot adhere to our standards of fair play and sportsmanship may be asked to leave the league.  JAX Fray wants everyone to have a fun and be social while enjoying a great sport.  JAX Fray will do whatever they can to make sure all players are having fun

Introduction

Description: Ultimate is a non-contact disc sport played by two teams of seven players with the objective of scoring goals. A goal is scored when a player catches the disc in the end zone that player is attacking. A player may not run while holding the disc. The disc is advanced by passing it to other players. The disc may be passed in any direction. If a pass is incomplete (i.e., hits the ground, is caught out-of-bounds, or is intercepted by a defensive player), a turnover occurs, resulting in an immediate change of the team in possession of the disc. An attempt to unfairly disadvantage an opponent through physical contact is a foul. Ultimate is self-officiated – there are no referees; players are responsible for making their own infraction and boundary (including scoring) calls.

Playing Field

The field is a 80 yard length rectangle with an end zone at each end. 60 yard playing field with 10 yard end zones.

Equipment

1. Rubber and molded cleats, turf shoes, or running shoes may be worn. No metal cleats. Players must remove all jewelry.

   1. There will be no Overtime during the regular season.
2. Starting and Restarting Play
   1. A fair method, such as a coin or disc toss, will be conducted by representatives of the two teams.
      1. The winner chooses to either receive the initial pull, or select the end zone they wish to defend.
      2. The other team is given the remaining choice.
      3. The second half begins with an automatic reversal of the initial choices.
   2. After a point is scored, it is recommended that players begin the next point within 90 seconds.
   3. After a turnover, a player on the team becoming offense may immediately pick up the disc and put it back into play by establishing a pivot foot in-bounds.

Pull

1. Play starts at the beginning of each half and after each goal with a “pull” — a player on the pulling team throws the disc toward the opposite goal line to begin play.
2. Each time a goal is scored, the teams switch their direction of attack and the team that scored pulls to the opposing team.
1. On a pull, players must remain in their end zone (not cross the goal line) until the disc is released.
2. A pull may not be made until a player on the receiving team indicates readiness to play by raising a hand.
3. After the disc is released, all players may move in any direction.
4. No player on the pulling team may touch the pull in the air before a member of the receiving team touches it.
5. If a member of the receiving team catches the pull on the playing field, that player must put the disc into play from that spot.
6. If the receiving team allows the disc to fall untouched to the ground, and the disc initially lands inbounds, the receiving team gains possession of the disc where it stops if in-bounds or at the point on the playing field, excluding the end zone, nearest to where it crossed the out-of-bounds line.
7. If the pull lands out-of-bounds the receiving team puts the disc into play at the point on the playing field, excluding the end zone, nearest to where it crossed the out-of-bounds line.
1. In and Out-of-Bounds
   1. The perimeter lines themselves are out-of-bounds.
   2. A disc is out-of-bounds when it first contacts an out-of-bounds area or anything which is out-of-bounds.
   3. For a receiver to be considered in-bounds after gaining possession of the disc, the first point of contact with the ground must be completely in-bounds. If any portion of the first point of contact is out-of-bounds, the player is considered to be out-of-bounds.
   4. If a player makes a catch in-bounds and momentum then carries him/her out-of-bounds, the player is considered in-bounds (to continue play, the player carries the disc to the point where s/he went out-of-bounds and puts the disc into play at that point).
   5. The thrower may pivot in and out-of-bounds, provided that the pivot foot is in-bounds.

Scoring

1. A goal is scored when an in-bounds player catches a pass in the end zone of attack.
2. If the score is tied at the end of regulation, play stops and overtime procedures are as follows for playoffs:
   1. The overtime sudden-death period will continue until the first team scores.

Time-outs

1. Each team has one 2-minute time-out per half.
2. Time-out may be called only by the team in possession of the disc, except that either team may call time-out between points (after a goal, but before the ensuing pull).
3. No time-outs during overtime.

Turnovers

1. A turnover occurs when:
   1. A pass is incomplete (dropped, hits the ground, is caught out of bounds, blocked, intercepted).
   2. A receiver must retain possession of the disc throughout all ground contact related to the catch (if a player falls to the ground during a catch and drops the disc, it is incomplete).
   3. The marker’s count reaches the maximum number (10) before the throw is released.
2. When a turnover has occurred, any member of the team becoming offense may take possession of the disc.
   1. To initiate play after a turnover, the person picking up the disc must put it into play at the spot of the turnover.
   2. If the disc landed out of bounds, the offensive player puts the disc into play at the point where it crossed the out-of-bounds line.

Substitutions: May be made after a goal and prior to the ensuing pull, before the beginning of a half, or to replace an injured or ejected player.

The Thrower

1. Any member of the offensive team may take possession of the disc.
2. The thrower must establish a pivot foot and may not change that pivot foot until the throw is released.
3. The thrower may pivot in any direction, but once the marker has established a legal defensive position, the thrower may not pivot into him/her.

The Marker

1. Only one player may guard the thrower at any one time; that player is the “marker.”
2. The marker may not straddle the pivot foot of the thrower.
3. There must be at least one disc’s diameter between the bodies of the thrower and the marker at all times.
4. The marker cannot position his/her arms in such a manner as to restrict the thrower from pivoting.

Stall count: The period of time within which a thrower must release a throw.

1. A player in possession of the disc has 10 seconds to release a throw.
2. The marker must be within 10 feet of the person with the disc before beginning the stall count.
3. The stall count consists of the marker counting to 10 audibly at one second intervals (e.g. “stalling one, two, three . . . .”).
4. If the thrower has not released the disc by the count of 10, a turnover results. If this call is disputed, the thrower gets the disc back with the stall count coming in at “stalling 8.”
5. If the defense switches markers, the new marker must restart the count at one.

The Receiver

1. After catching a pass, the receiver may take only the fewest number of steps required to come to a stop and establish a pivot foot.
   1. Exception: If the receiver catches the disc while running, s/he may throw a pass without coming to a stop, but only so long as s/he releases the disc before the third ground contact after catching the disc.
2. If offensive and defensive players catch the disc simultaneously, the offense retains possession.

Fouls and Violations

1. A foul is the result of physical contact between opposing players; a violation generally is any other infraction of the rules. When an infraction (a foul or violation) occurs:
2. The offending player loudly calls out the infraction (e.g., “Travel,” “Foul,” etc.).
3. A player called for an infraction may contest that call (by loudly calling “contest”), if that player believes that s/he did not commit the infraction.

   2. Any team who picks up players should not add more players than can play on the field at any given time- meaning that team should not have any substitutes.

Player Conduct

1. Discipline – The Team Captain assumes the responsibility regarding team leadership and maintenance of order and discipline. JAX Fray expects each Captain to set a positive example for their players in promoting good sportsmanship and self- control.
2. Sideline Control – The Captain is responsible for the behavior of his/her bench area. After being verbally warned or cautioned (yellow card) by the referee for unsportsmanlike behavior from his/her bench area, the Captain will receive a red card if the situation persists.
3. The referee also has the power to eject any spectator at any time at his or her discretion.
4. Use of Foul Language is not appreciated in any circumstances and can result in a warning or in extreme circumstances can result in ejection from a game. JAX Fray plays on city park property and there are others present during games, thus we cannot allow for inappropriate conduct.

Player Suspension

1. JAX Fray will refuse registration to any player currently on suspension from any Jacksonville-area league.
2. JAX Fray also reserves the right to suspend players from league play.
   1. This is at the sole discretion of Jax Fray and cannot be appealed. Registration fees will not be refunded to suspended players

Golden Rule
First and foremost all JAX Fray leagues are 50% Social and 50% Sport. We do have officials; however, we expect individuals to respect the league’s culture of fair and fun play. Foul language and rough play will not be tolerated and individuals who cannot adhere to our standards of fair play and sportsmanship may be asked to leave the league. JAX Fray wants everyone to have a fun and be social while enjoying a great sport. JAX Fray will do whatever they can to make sure all players are having fun.

The Game

Co-Ed Volleyball is made up of two (2) teams of six (6) players each, with three (3) men and three (3) women on the court for each team
Exception for Competitive nights where teams will have four (4) players on the court
A best-of-3 format will be used for all matches.  Generally, USVBA rules will be used.

Rosters

JAX Fray is proud to relieve captains of the burden of paying for full teams. While captains and players are able to prepay for additional players and or full teams, it is not a requirement for participation in our leagues. We welcome individual player payments.
We are also proud to welcome those who do not have a full team (small groups and free agents) to participate in our league.

Our primary mission is to make it easier for people to have fun and get involved with social sports and these policies help accomplish that goal.

Because of these policies, all registrations are on a first come first serve basis and any roster that does not reach our standard size (based on each sport) is eligible to receive free agents and or small group by the league. Rosters made up of primarily free agents and or a collection of small groups may field more players than the standard roster size. This policy is in place to help ensure free agent teams are able to consistently field teams each week.

1. All players must be at least 21 years of age prior to participating in any Match and must be registered and in good standing with JAX Fray Volleyball (herein: the “League”).

2. Rosters must include no fewer than eight (8) players (minimum of 3 women)

A. Competitive nights will be required to have six (6) players, consisting of a minimum of two (2) women, but may have as many players on the roster as a team chooses with no other restrictions.

B. If a team of “free agent” registrations is assembled by the League, it will have no more than twelve (12) players.

3. Each team may have six (6) players (exception for Athletic Leagues where is this 4 players) on the court at one time.

A. For 6v6 If a team has two (2) women present, it may play with three (3) men and two (2) women on the court.

B. For 4v4 games if a team has one (1) woman present it may play with two (2) men and one (1) woman on the court.

4. As long as two (2) members of the team are present during the regular season, a team may use substitute players who are registered and in good standing with the league to field a full team.During the playoffs, teams may only use players on their roster.

Game Personnel and Their Duties

1. Teams and players are responsible for calling their own faults during play.

2. Teams may be asked to provide one (1) referee for games before or after their own match to act as a referee (there will be a schedule).  Referees will be the official timekeepers.

3. Referees’ will be positioned, during game play, at the center line.

4. Referees’ primary responsibilities are to serve as an arbitrator for difficult calls, start and maintain game flow, ensure the safety of all participants and spectators, and enforce the Sportsmanship Code. It is the PLAYERS’ responsibility to identify faults when they occur.

5. League officials have the authority to eject anyone before, during and immediately after any match if they feel it is warranted.
All decisions made by referees are final.

Code of Sportsmanship

1. Volleyball is a self-regulated game that relies on the Honor System. If a fault occurs, you are expected to call it as such.

2. Referees are there to rule on unclear plays, settle disputes, keep the game moving and ensure player safety. While they will at times call a fault, a lack of a call by a Referee does not remove your obligation to abide by the Honor System.

3. Players must treat their fellow volleyball players, referees and spectators with respect and courtesy. Personal and malicious remarks directed at anybody in the volleyball community, obscene or otherwise, at any time, have no place in the League.

4. Players must respect the authority of the referees to regulate the game and abide by their decisions. Referees’ decisions are final.

5. Team captains must be the only players that address concerns to referees and league officials. They are expected to do so in a courteous and respectful manner, and to confine their discussions to interpretations of the rules and not challenge referees’ decisions regarding judgment.

6. Players are expected to comply with the intent and spirit of the rules.  Deliberately attempting to violate the rules is unacceptable.

7. Teammates rely on players attending the games.  If you fail to attend at least 3 games with no excuse, you may be replaced on the roster if both the captain and league management agree that it is best for your team.
