  GRAPE - The Kicker Event 06

GRAPE stands for Groups of Angelika, Peter and Emo. This is the first event of its kind in the history of the institute (I guess!). Kicker (or Table Football as it is formally called) was officially invented in the year 1937 by a Spanish poet. It's a popular sport here. Ok. Enough of the history!

Tournament Date: 05.05.06, 1515 hrs!
Venue: H-floor Kicker room.

Rules:
  • Teams of at most two, at least one. If you are the sole member of your team, then goals from the middle count for you (for teams of two, scoring directly from middle doesn't count)! And this is the only privilege for you.
  • One person can play in one team only.
  • Depending on the number of teams, we'll go for a RoundRobin or a normal Tournament. In the former case, every team plays every other team and the top two teams (number of wins) play the finals.
  • A game is for 1 set.
  • If the score is 10-9, then a difference of 2 determines the winner.
  • The finals is for 3 sets, the rules are natural extensions of the previous rule! :)
  • Other simple rules hold good -- like: multi-rotations forbidden, team goaled against gets to kick-start the next time, etc..
  • No cheating!!
