By order of the Commissioner

Official Rules: Civil War

  1. Teams. Three on three. Each player has six cups in a small triangle, half full, and one ball.
  2. No turns. On the whistle, everyone shoots at any opponent's cups, any time.
  3. Elbows behind the table edge until release.
  4. Loose balls belong to whoever grabs them first. One ball per hand at a time.
  5. Sunk. The cup's owner finishes it and removes it, and gets the ball back.
  6. Bounces sink one cup and may be swatted.
  7. No re-racks.
  8. Lose all six cups, and you're out. You may chase balls. You may not shoot.
  9. Last team with a player standing wins.
