Violation: PENALTY.

<G46>DISC Penetration Restriction– The DISC must not extend more than 3 inches inside the FRAME PERIMETER as defined in Rule <R19>. Incidental protrusions of the DISC within this boundary will not be penalized if the TEAM corrects the condition before resuming game play.
Violation: PENALTY for a basic infraction, plus a YELLOW CARD if no immediate attempt to remedy and/or the action is deemed intentional.
So basically something like hockey? Teams couldn't shoot disks and would pass them around on the floor? This seems like fun! However it is unlikely they would use the same scoring element 2 years in a row
