TAG
TEAM MATCH

Friendly Version
**All
standard beer pong rules apply unless noted otherwise.
Competitors:
Two teams of two players each.
Setup:
Each player has their own pyramid formation of
six cups to be placed on opposing sides and ends of the
table.

Start
of the Match: Each match begins with the appointed
captain of each team staring each other in the eyes and
attempting to throw a ball into one of their opponents'
cups. The winning team receives first possession.
During
Gameplay:
1.)
Each tag team has one “legal man” and one “illegal
man”. The legal man shoots for his team when it is
their turn and is shot at when it is the opposing team's
turn.
2.)
The illegal man is allowed to assist his team by taunting/distracting
opponents and attempting to block bounce shots.
3.)
Any shots that land into an illegal man’s cup do not
count and may not be thrown again.
4.)
A legal man can tag his partner making himself illegal and
the partner the new legal man. However, tags may only take
place while a team is on offense, before their last ball
is thrown.
Winning
the Match:
1.)
When all of a player’s cups have been made, they receive
a redemption turn during which they may attempt to sink
the remainder of the other team’s legal man (unless
the opponent brought it back).
2.)
No tags can be made during the redemption turn. If redemption
is successful, the match goes into overtime. If unsuccessful,
the match is over. There is no elimination. It's the equivalent
of a pinfall in wrestling- when one man is pinned, the entire
tag team loses.
Overtime:
1.)
Both players who lost all of their cups receive three more
cups and the match carries on as normal until a winner is
decided.
