Team Saucony isn’t your typical sports team. It’s a league of true Originals. It’s a place to come together and play the sort of sports that don’t require cleats, pads or helmets. It’s less about the goals you score, and more about the hang.

This summer from June through August you will be able to find Saucony at McCarren Park Pool every Sunday. In order to properly prepare you & hopefully get the adrenaline / testosterone flowing well in advance here are official rules to the game.
You will be able to find us there handing out headbands & water guns, giving away entire pairs of shoes & rocking out rain or shine. These rules are from about.com.
- Two teams, each team gets ten players per round
- Substitutions may be made between rounds only
- Each team may set their own formations but there must be at least 3 players within 10 yards of the dividing line
- Players must never cross the dividing line
- First team to completely eliminate the opposing team wins that round; first team to win 10 rounds wins the match
- To eliminate a player you must hit him with a ball or catch a ball he has thrown
- Once a player is hit he must sit on the sidelines for the remainder of the round
- If a teammate catches an opposing player’s throw he may designate one teammate who is out to return to the game
- Players who hit someone in the head must sit out the current round and the following round, with no substitution
Have you played to a different tune? Let us know how your rules go, we will customize rules for the pool parties based on feedback & most likely more comprehensive research.
