Sports Rules | Sports Regulations

Sports rules are the regulations that govern competitive games and are agreed upon by teams in order to set the structure of a sport. Through a competitive set of rules, sports regulations are designed to ensure the safety of both the athletes and the equipment involved in the sport without prohibitively impacting the intentions of the gameplay. Sports regulations are found in every sport and primarily define the systems of scoring while controlling which sporting equipment can accompany each game type. In modern times, greater rules of morality and conduct follow athletes and their teams on and off the field of play to better enforce a level of quality and professional competency in all walks of life.

Beer Pong Shot Techniques

Beer pong shot techniques refer to the various styles and rules of throwing the ping pong ball in a game of beer pong. Varying with team strategies and individual personal quirks when throwing the ball, the way you throw the ball has a direct impact on the game. Regardless of the shot type, players must throw the ball with their elbow behind the back edge of the table—this is referred to as the Elbow Rule. The three main throwing techniques used by beer pong players are the arc shot, the fastball or laser shot, and the bounce shot.

Arc shots are released higher and drop into the cups from above while fastball shots are thrown in a line directly at the back of the target cup. On the other hand, the bounce shot requires that the player bounces the ball beyond the center line of the table and into a cup in a single bounce. Opposing teams that see a player attempting a bounce shot have the opportunity to swat the ball away from the beer pong table after it bounces. Because bounce shots are difficult to sneak by the opposing team, successful bounce shots count as two cups.

Cornhole Distance - Regulation

Cornhole courts are most commonly placed on lawn surfaces with the two cornhole boards (platforms) placed 27’ (8.23 m) apart. Pitching boxes are located on both sides of the boards and designate the zones for players to throw from. At the front edge of the boards and pitching boxes is the foul line which players cannot pass when throwing their bean bags.

Regulation Cornhole distance between the two opposing boards is 27’ (8.23 m), resulting in the central board holes being spaced at 33’ (10.06 m) apart. Pitching boxes are sized at at 3’x4’ (91x122 cm) and are located on both sides of the 2’x4’ (61-122 cm) boards. The resulting entirety of the Regulation Cornhole court is 35'x8' (10.67 x 2.44 m) with an overall area of 280 ft2 (26 m2).

Cornhole Distance - Kids

Comparison of two recommended cornhole distances for younger players—kids courts and junior courts

Kids-sized cornhole courts are modified playing areas meant to accompany the skills of younger players. The distance between cornhole boards is decreased by nearly half, shrinking from the regulation distance of 27' (8.23 m) to 15' (4.57 m). This shorter distance helps kids learn the basics of gameplay without the strength and accuracy needed to throw bags at the longer distances.

The distance between cornhole boards for young kids should be set at 15' (4.57 m), resulting in the central board holes being spaced at 21’ (6.4 m) apart. Like regulation cornhole courts, the pitching boxes remain sized at at 3’x4’ (91x122 cm) and are located on both sides of the 2’x4’ (61-122 cm) boards. The resulting entirety of a kids cornhole court is 23'x8' (7 x 2.44 m) with an overall area of 180 ft2 (16.7 m2).

Pool Lane Floor & Wall Details

A Pool Lane Floor is the base of a pool usually made of vinyl, showing different markings. Wall Details are markings on the walls of a pool. All the markings are done according to Fédération Internationale de Natation (FINA) acceptable standards for competitions. The floor has details showing where the depth begins, the false start line is, half line is, and the starting block. Wall detail shows touch panel and backstroke flags. These details guide how athletes should act while in the pool or competing and also help officials govern a swimming competition.

Beer Pong Racks & Re-Racks

Diagram drawing of all the possible Beer Pong Racks and Reracks available from 10 cups down to 1 cup formations

Beer pong racks, and subsequent re-racks, refer to the organization and formation of the beer pong cups on the table. Starting out with cups organized in triangular racks of 6 or 10 cups on both sides of the beer pong table, players must drink and remove any cups that have been successfully made by the opposing team.

Depending on the rules established for the game, both teams are allowed one or two re-racks at the start of their turn. Re-racks are an opportunity to reorganize the remaining cups into a shape that is more desirable and/or an easier target for the team shooting. Re-rack rules in beer pong often vary, so it is always best to ask about the re-rack rules before starting a game.
