If this is the case, then the human player will be more important than in most past games. (See Ladder Logic, or First Frenzy for important human player roles)

I think I am starting to understand this game.

This is an interesting catch...I originally took "An ALLIANCE may not POSSESS their oponent's BALLS." to prohibit this, as "ALLIANCE" is defined in such a way to include human players, but "POSSESS" is defined pretty clearly to NOT include human player actions. I tend to agree now, that the human player could be an active defensive participant.
