Camball - A New Sport

The new sport of Camball was created by Joel Campbell from the UK in May 2022. The sport is a NFL, Rugby and Football (Soccer) Fusion with a whistler instead of a ball. Players use a whistler to progress to the other end of the field of play(rugby pitch)via passing and reaching the end zone. Players can also score by running into the endzone (similar to American football and rugby). Highest score by the end of the match wins(90 mins).

Sport Description

A match begins in a similar way to football. A match is won by scoring in the end zone by running the whistler into the zone via passing to teammates around the field.

Penalties are awarded for tackles above the shoulder/ tackles that are too vigorous. A penalty is taken by throwing the whistler through the rugby goal from a distance on the field. 

Team starts in the middle of the field like football. Whistler is passed around the team while the other team tackles, intercepts and stops the team in possession from scoring.

If the team intercepts a pass on transit then they are able to try and score themselves. If a team player gets taken down then play is started again from the place of takedown. The team in possession has 3 attempts to get a point in the end zone before possession is given to the other team and the play starts from the centre again.

A team member is able to continue play while being taken down by passing to another teammate. If the player has been fully taken down then the play will resume from place of takedown. If the player is being taken down and drops the whistler the other team member can pick up the whistler and score for their team.

Equipment Required: A whistler, football boots and sportswear.
