RTMS TOUCH FOOTBALL RULES |
|
|
|
4 plays to get to mid field (50 yard line)marked by an orange pylon . If achieved, that team gets 4 more plays to score a touchdown (6pts) |
|
|
|
Squad vs Squad (approx 7 players per team) |
|
|
|
With the exception of an interception - each posession begins on the teams own 5 yard line (marked by a dome pylon) |
|
|
|
After a touchdown the scoring team gets the ball at the defending team's 5 yard(dome plylon) for a 1 pt conversion attempt |
|
|
|
There is no kicking of the football at any time. |
|
|
|
Every offensive play must be a passing play - no running plays allowed |
|
|
No fumbles - if an offensive player fumbles the football the play is ruled dead, and the next down continues at the spot of the fumble |
|
|
Play is dead if - Incompleted pass, player steps out of bounds, fumble, player is 2 hand touched by a defensive player |
|
|
|
2 Hand Touch - no tackling or blocking allowed |

|
The Defensive Team can designate one 'rusher' who lines up 5 yards off the ball and after counting 5 Steamboats out loud may cross the line of scrimmage and rush the quaterback. |
|
|
|
The Quaterback can only run with the football if rushed by the opposing team's rusher |
|
|
|
After each play always remember the football is to be centered away from the sidelines before the next play occurs |
