Play

The rules are those practiced in the Rugby with 15. However, there exist some modifications: no the play with the foot, only the play with the hand is authorized. No plating, nor of fixing of the shirt or part of the body. The pulling up of a flag corresponds to a plating and gives place to a suspension of the play. There is no stop of the play if the ribbon is torn off during the master key.

Resumption of the play after the catch of a flag (successful plating)

the defender poses the flag on the ground at the place of pulling up
the carrier of the balloon poses it on the ground close to its flag which it recovers.
During this time, the assailing team starts again the play by a master key with the one of its partners placed at the back.
