You think our rules are confusing?

[Mark Padgett]

Try this one:


Law 36: Leg before wicket
1. Out LBW
The striker is out LBW in the circumstances set out below.
(a) The bowler delivers a ball, not being a No ball
and (b) the ball, if it is not intercepted full pitch, pitches in line between wicket and wicket or on the off side of the striker's wicket
and (c) the ball not having previously touched his bat, the striker intercepts the ball, either full-pitch or after pitching, with any part of his person
and (d) the point of impact, even if above the level of the bails
either (i) is between wicket and wicket
or (ii) is either between wicket and wicket or outside the line of the off stump if the striker has made no genuine attempt to play the ball with his bat
and (e) but for the interception, the ball would have hit the wicket.

All players joining a ruck must do so from behind the foot of the hindmost team-mate in the ruck. A player may join alongside this hindmost player. If the player joins the ruck from the opponentsÂ’ side, or in front of the hindmost team-mate, the player is offside.

If a player is in front of the off-side line and does not join the ruck, the player must retire behind the off-side line at once. If a player who is behind the off-side line oversteps it and does not join the ruck the player is off-side.

If a player leaves a ruck that player must immediately retire behind the off-side line otherwise the player is off-side. Once the player is on-side, the player may rejoin the ruck. If the player rejoins in front of the hindmost team-mate in the ruck, the player is off-side. The player may rejoin the ruck alongside the hindmost team-mate.


What the ruck are they talking about?

From the official rules of ? (guess)

World Record Consideration: A rally must be clean of any fouls to be considered for a world record. Videotape recordings are required to verify all world records due to the difficulty of counting speed consecutive, and to clarify any questions about fouls.

[Tee]

Non-Alternating Foul

In Timed Singles rallies, any time two consecutive kicks are taken with the same leg / foot. When three kicks kicks in a row are taken with the same leg, that would be counted as two non-alternating fouls. Any two kicks separated by a drop or upper body foul are not consecutive, therefore cannot be considered for assessing a non-alternating penalty.

1) If you have a hall that is smaller than a normal court, you should drop the two Centres to give two teams of six. The WA ,defended by the WD takes the centre passes; the 'other' WA and WD line up in their normal starting position. With a very much smaller hall you should drop the WD & WA to give two teams of five.

2) A player cannot volley a ball while standing within the non-volley zone.

3) When the game has started, players/teams occupying first and second post positions shall compete for the first point until one of the players/teams is eliminated, the player/team winning the point shall then become the server/serving team and his/their opponent shall be that player/team which is next in line on the front of the bench, and the player/team which had just been eliminated is to take the last seat on the other end of the bench until such time as all other players/teams seated on the bench have had an opportunity through elimination of one another and he/they become(s) the first on the bench again.
