published by IWF (International Woodball Federation).


    1. After the player is in hit position, the referee makes his hand sign of hitting. The player should complete his action of first shot in ten seconds. The violator is admonished. When he breaks the rule again, he is added a penalty stroke.

    2. When hitting his first shot, a player should place his ball on the starting line or on the ground within the starting area, and he hits from a stationary posture.

    3. The player hits his first shot, his ball does not go out of the starting area. The hitting is counted as one stroke. He hits the first shot again, but it is taken as his second stroke.
