At the sound of the judge’s whistle the event will start. The team will connect and stretch out two (2) 100’ hose lines. Connect both hose lines to the water source and the deluge gun. After all connections are made and water is flowing through both lines the targets will be knocked down.  The deluge gun must be operated using the hand controls, not by tilting the deluge gun.
