The competition will be run in a similar manner to the water games.

• Each of the six games will be set up around the hall.
• Teams will go round each game in turn, having one attempt at each game.
• Some games are against the clock, other games are scored.
• A team of 6 boys is required for each game, but companies may choose a different 6 boys for each game if they wish.
• Second (and third) teams will be welcome.

Placings for the Battalion Champions Cup will be worked out as follows:

• For each game, the teams will be ranked in order, scoring 10 points for coming first, 8 for second, 7 for third down to 1 point for coming 9th.
• The total points will be added up to determine the Champions Cup order, the overall winner scoring 18 points, second scoring 17 as usual.

The scores for each team will be sent to BB Headquarters for their entries into the national competition. If a company wishes to make their national competition entry in their own time, then they must notify me before the start of this competition that they do not want their scores forwarded to HQ. To comply with the national competition rules a company cannot subsequently change their mind about using the Battalion competition as their national entry. If you have any questions, please contact me.

Each company taking part will need to provide a judge, who will act as the judge for one particular game for the competition.

Some clarifications about the individual games:

• Where circles are drawn, the distances quoted in the rules will be from the circumference of the circle.
• In the "Leg Roll" the ball will be a standard 5-a-side football. The ball MUST NOT touch a boy's foot or it will be deemed to have been kicked.
• In "Bouce Ball" the bucket will be a conventionally shaped 10 litre (approx) bucket.
