Teams begin the game with the same number of players on the field.THE GAME - The object of the game is to score the most points during a timed Match. Points are awarded for “hits” and “catches”. A “hit” against an opponent = 1 point. A “catch” is worth 3 points when an opponent’s arrow is caught in mid flight. When a player is hit with an arrow, they remain in the game and continue to play.BOUNDARIES - During play, all players must remain within the boundary lines.THE OPENING RUSH - Players take a position on their end line. Following a signal by the referee, players rush into the Neutral Zone to gather their arrows. Each team’s arrows are on their right. Players then return to their Action Zone to start shooting.ZONE RULES - Players are “live” only when in their Action Zone. They can only shoot or be shot when in their Action Zone (behind their Attack Line). Players are not allowed to shoot from the Neutral Zone and players cannot shoot at players who are in the Neutral Zone. Players in the Neutral Zone are only permitted to retrieve arrows and return immediately to their Action Zone. Players may not stall in the Neutral Zone and must return to their Action Zone within 10 seconds before a warning will be issued by the referee. A second infraction will result in a 2 point penalty at the discretion of the referee. 2 point penalties may be assessed for crossing over the opposing team’s Attack Line, stalling, shooting someone in the Neutral Zone, or being out of bounds.PAUSE IN GAME (TIMEOUTS) - The only timeouts are for equipment safety issues and injured players. On the rare occasion of an injury, immediately notify the referee to stop play and attend to the injured player.PLAYER CONDUCT - Players are to respect and adhere to the decisions of the referee at all times. Masks must be worn during game play. Respect all players. Bows and arrows are to be used only as intended for game play. Under no circumstance are bows or arrows to be used as a shield, or to knock arrows out of the air. Violent or disrespectful behavior will not be tolerated.

If you, like 60% of other golfers, suffer from lower back pain it could be due to tight hamstrings! This class will open the hips allowing for greater hip turn and more efficient ball striking as you are better able to turn and transfer your weight, while maintaining your balance and power.Core and Balance: This Yoga for Golfers® session focuses on the muscles in the core and balance helping you achieve a more consistent, effective, and repeatable golf swing.Birdie Session: This Yoga for Golfers® session is a little more challenging than the Par Session, but still very accessible for all levels of fitness. Here build on the Core and Balance session and use yoga postures to create greater separation between the upper and lower body, thereby enabling more thoracic rotation, which means faster club head speed and more distance off the tee!Length and Strength: This Yoga for Golfers® session uses poses that will strengthen the muscles used in the golf swing and then we hold a more traditional Yin style pose to deepen the stretch, leaving you feeling relaxed and ready to hit the links!Eagle Session: This Yoga for Golfers® session is a little more challenging, and builds on the gains in strength, mobility, and flexibility from the Par and Birdie Sessions. It focuses on all the major muscle groups used in the golf swing, but the challenge lies in the balance and endurance poses.
