If a match is not decided after
Extra Time a Sudden Death is required. You can do this as a Sudden Death by penalty roll-off, as described in the BB2020 rules book p.67, or if both coaches agree you can do it as a
Field Goal Penalty Shootout competition.
FIELD GOAL PENALTY SHOOTOUT EXPLAINED:These rules may be subject to evaluation and tweaks before any important championship play-off match, at the commissioners discretion.Each coach select 1 player to lead their kicking team.
Each coach randomly select 4 other players from their reserves box to attend their kicking team.
Each coach secretly decide in witch order their 5 kicking players will attempt to score a field goal.
The 5 players each kick one Field Goal attempt in the set order.
Complete all 5 original Field Goal attempts, for spp purposes, even if a winner is settled early.
Repeat the kicking order with 1 and 1 player until a winner is decided, if not settled with the first 5 field goal attempts.
The team with most successfull Field Goals is the winner.
The Field Goal Kick:1. Test to see if the kick is long enough: 6+ on D6+ST.
2. Test to see if the kick is between the bars: PA test (If PA is -, and only then, do an AG test)
Skill bonuses: Kick gives +1 on both tests.
"The kick is good!": If both the kick is long enough (1) and the aim is good enough (2), then it is a successful Field Goal!
The kicking player gets 1spp recorded as a completion (
as default, works for most players), Throw Team-Mate completion (
for big guys) or as a Deflection (
for players that can not normally pass or throw team-mates).
Recording the winner:The team winning the penalty shootout will get an extra TD awarded (record this as if scored by a mercenary/star). This is mainly for calculation purposes for the website (you need more TDs than the opposition to be recognized as the winner).
Field Goal Penalty Shootouts are most commonly used in the Oslo BBL 3rd place match.
