A. Set Up (see Figure 01)
Each team has eleven pawns (players): Two strikers and four midfielders (pawns
with numbers); four defenders (without numbers) and one Goal Keeper (1). The ten
players who are not the Goal Keeper are also called field players.
Row 1 will have the Goal Keeper on one of the two squares in the Goal Area.
Row 4 will have the 4 defenders in columns B, D, E and G.
Row 6 will have the 4 midfielders (any numbers) in columns A, C, F and H.
Row 8 will have the two strikers (any numbers) lined up anywhere in the row.
However the team kicking the ball (the O-Team) must have one pawn with the ball
in the circle (either square). The other team’s strikers must respect the one square
Free Kick zone (see ‘Free Kick’, rule 10).
The O-Team (Offense) sets up their pawns first.
