Following the completion of pool matches teams will be ranked within their pool based on
the total number of competition points accumulated. The Top 2 teams from each pool will
progress to quarter finals depending on where they are ranked at the completion of pool
matches.
If a team does not present itself to play a match or is unwilling or unable to continue a
match, without the prior consent of the Tournament Manager, Referee and opposition
Coach, then the team will be considered to have defaulted the match and subject to
confirmation by the Tournament Manager, that team may be expelled from the
tournament.
If a team is expelled from the tournament, for whatever reason:
That team shall be deemed to have been awarded no pool competition table points and to
have scored no tries or points in the pool matches; and
For the purposes of determining rankings in a pool, all match results against such team shall
be deemed null and void. This means that all pool competition table points awarded in
matches against the expelled team and tries and points scored or conceded in matches
against such team will not be taken into account in determining standings in the pool
competition table.
If a team defaults a match, but is not expelled from the Tournament, the opposition team in
that match will be awarded the win plus a 4-try bonus point (maximum points) and will be
deemed to have scored 4 tries in the match.

10.
Determining Competition Standings
10.1
Position in the pool competition table shall be determined by competition points as set out
in point 9 above.
If at the conclusion of the pool matches two or more teams are equal on competition points
for any position in that pool, such ranking will be determined on the result of the match
between the two equal teams. The team that won that match shall be deemed to have
finished higher in the pool.
If the match between the two teams equal on competition points at the end of the pool
matches was a draw, or there are more than two teams on equal points and the process in
9.2 does not provide a result, then the following process shall be used to determine the
rankings:
The margin of tries scored for and against a team in all pool matches shall be considered. The
team with the highest positive margin of tries shall be ranked higher in the pool. If the tie still
remains unresolved then;
The team that has scored the highest average number of tries in the pool matches shall be
ranked higher in the pool. If the tie still remains unresolved then;
The tie will be resolved by the team that scored the first try in the match between the two
teams being ranked higher in the pool. If the tie still remains unresolved then;
The tie will be resolved by the toss of a coin between two of the team chaperones
concerned.

Quarter Finals, Semi-Finals & Finals Qualifiers
The top two teams from each pool will qualify for the quarter finals, with the top ranked
team from each pool playing a second ranked team from another pool. The winners of the
quarter final matches will advance to the semi-finals. The winners of the semi-finals will
advance to the final while the losers of the semi-finals will play each other in the minor final.
12.
Quarter Finals, Semi-Finals & Finals Drawn Matches
During the quarter-finals, semi-finals and final, in the event of a match being drawn at the
end of normal time, extra time will be played until a winner is determined. Extra time will
be in periods of four minutes. After each period the teams will change ends with a one
minute interval. In extra time the team which scores first will immediately be declared the
winner without further play. The team that first passed off will do so again in the first period
of extra time, and subsequent pass-offs will alternate between the two sides.
13.
Abandonment
Apart from where a team defaults a match, in the event of a match having to be stopped
after its commencement under the provisions of the Rippa Rugby Tournament Rules, then
subject to confirmation by the Tournament Operations Manager, the following procedure
shall apply:
13.1
Pool Matches
a.
Where a pool match has been abandoned either at half-time or at any time in the second
half the result and any tries scored by each team in the match shall stand.
Where a pool match has been abandoned during the first half the result shall be declared a
draw.
Where a pool match has been declared a draw then for that match, each team will be
awarded two competition points (plus any four-try bonus point/s, where applicable) and any
tries scored will count towards the total tries scored by each team in all of their pool/round
robin matches.
b.
c.
13.2
Quarter Finals, Semi-Finals & Finals
a.
Where a match has been abandoned either at half time or at any time in the second half the
result shall stand. If both teams are tied then the provision within clause 13.1a shall be used
to ascertain a winner.
6
b.
If a match has been abandoned during the first half the result shall be declared a draw and
the provisions within clause 13.1a shall be used to ascertain the winner with points scored in
all matches in the tournament taken into consideration. However, if one of the teams
participated in a pool where a team was expelled, for whatever reason, then the matter will
be referred to the Tournament Operations Manager who shall decide the most appropriate
method for determining the winner of the tied match.

20.
20.1
20.2
20.3
20.4
20.5
The Rippa Belt
The belt is adjusted to fit the waist of the player and fastened so that two flags hang one
from each side.
Velcro attaches the flags so they are positioned one on each hip.
Care needs to be taken to ensure that for safety the tail of the belt is tucked away.
Each team is distinguished by the colour of the flags they wear.
The belt must be worn outside the clothing, shirts tucked in and flags free so they can be
ripped off.
7
20.6
If a player accidentally loses a flag when they have the ball, the game will be stopped to
allow the player to replace the flag. Once the flag has been replaced the game will restart
with a free pass by the player in possession. The stoppage will not count towards the rip
count.
21.
Attackers
21.1
21.2
The ball carrier cannot fend defenders off using their hands, or the ball.
The ball carrier cannot guard or shield their flags in any way.
22.
Defenders (Rippers)
22.1
22.2
There is no contact in Rippa Rugby. Defenders (Rippers) ripping the flag off the belt of the
ball carrier stops the ball carrier’s progress.
Defenders (Rippers) cannot physically touch the ball carrier.
23.
Starting Play
23.1
23.2
One team starts each half of the game from the centre of the field with a free pass.
When a try is scored, the non-scoring team starts at the centre of the field with a free pass.
24.
Free Pass
24.1
To make a free pass, the player making the pass has the ball in two hands and passes to a
member of their own team who is free to run.
The Defenders (Rippers) must remain five metres back from the player making the free pass.
They cannot start moving forward until the ball leaves the hands of the player making the
free pass.
A free pass is also used to restart play at any time that play has halted and needs to be
restarted.
If the ball travels out of the field of play, the game is restarted with a free pass to the side
that was not the last side to touch it inside the field of play just inside the playing area, at the
point where the ball travelled out of play.
Free passes cannot take place less than five metres from the try line.
A free pass is also awarded to the non-offending team when their opposition infringes the
rules, such as a forward pass, an offside or for not returning the flag to the ripped player.
24.2
24.3
24.4
24.5
24.6
25.
Rip
25.1
25.2
25.3
25.4
25.8
To complete a rip, one of the two flags from the ball carrier’s belt must be removed.
The only person who can be ripped is the ball carrier.
The Defender (Ripper) must stop, hold the flag above their head and shout "RIP!"
The ball carrier must then pass the ball immediately (within three strides). He or she does
not have to stop, return to the mark or roll the ball between their legs.
Six rips in a row leads to a turnover in possession.
After the ball carrier has passed the ball the Defender (Ripper) must hand the flag back to
the player who then reattaches it to their belt before they re-join play. If either of these
players doesn't adhere to this, they will be penalized and a free pass will be awarded to the
non- offending team at the place of the infringement.
If a player is ripped before the try line and doesn't pass before they get over the line, they
restart play five metres out from the try line with a free pass.
Restarting the rip count occurs when there is a turnover or when either team is penalised.
26.
Knock On
26.1
When a player knocks the ball towards the opponents' try line and does not regain control of
the ball before it touches the ground, another player or the referee, a free pass is awarded
to the non-offending team unless an advantage can be played.
27.
Offside
27.1
27.2
Offside only occurs at a rip.
When a rip is made, all players from the Defender’s (Ripper's) team must get back until they
are behind where the rip was made. Failure to do so results in a free pass to the team in
possession and the rip count will restart at zero.
25.5
25.6
25.7
8
27.3
If a player is offside and they intercept, prevent or slow down a pass, they will be penalized
and a free pass will be awarded to the non-offending team, unless an advantage can be
played.
28.
Passing the Ball
28.1
28.2
28.3
28.4
28.5
The ball can only be passed by the ball carrier in a backwards direction.
Attackers must not pass the ball forward, towards the Defenders’ (Rippers’) try line.
Attackers cannot hand the ball to another Attacker.
A free pass will be awarded to the opposition if an Attacker passes the ball forward or hands
the ball to another Attacker.
If the ball is not caught to conclude a pass but is not knocked on, play can continue.
29.
Kicking
29.1
There is no kicking of any kind in Rippa Rugby.
30.
Advantage
30.1
30.2
30.4
Not stopping the game when an infringement happens is called 'advantage'.
Referees should play 'advantage' to the non-offending team if there is any chance that they
may be advantaged by there being no stoppage in play, for instance if the team gets the ball
or retains the ball in circumstances that are more favourable than if a free pass was called .
The referee should call 'advantage' followed by 'play on' if an advantage is deemed by the
referee to occur.
If no advantage occurs within a reasonable period play restarts with a free pass.
31.
Going to Ground
31.1
31.2
Subject to 31.2, if the ball carrier intentionally goes to ground or a player dives on the ball, a
free pass is awarded to the opposition.
Players can dive for a try or dive on the ball for a try.
32.
Injuries
30.3
There will be no replacement of injured players in the named team of ten (10) players
confirmed and registered prior to the tournament day. If a player is injured such that
he/she cannot continue in the tournament, then the team will play the remainder of the
tournament with its remaining fit players, confirmed prior to the tournament day. If there is
an injury, the referee may stop time for up to one (1) minute during games.
33.
Fair Play
33.1
All players must play games in a positive spirit following the principles of good
sportsmanship.
In instances of verbal abuse, physical abuse, poor sportsmanship, intentional offending,
persistent reoffending or any other offending deemed necessary, a referee may send a
player from the playing area.
If a player is sent from the playing area by the referee under 18.2 they must remain off for
the remainder of that game. However, that player can be replaced by another player who
has not been sent off.
