I take it its xball, as there is coaching, which one is Matt? Is he the one crouching at the end? Also how did he handle the language barrier?

it is M7 from memory Xball with short rosters (7 players per match) and a few other rule changes (ramp is different). The field size may also be different. I also seem to remember it being best of 5 (or 7), but hat may have changed, and for the life of me I can not work out the score summary.
The 2006 rules just refer you to the homepage, where I get stuck looking for info.

My thoughts on the language barrier is that they probably have words and codes for the players positions "california,G7 , 3 HOT etc and he learnt those then had a translator off field. Or if there was coaching on there was a translator on with the coach.

Hey guyes
First thanks for all the support
the format is Xball light 10 minutes game time and three minutes turn over first to five points. All european events run ramping at 15bps max and ramp start at 7.5bps
the video is the Ms Toulouse world cup in sothern france.It was our quarter final knock out match against disruption. The guy who i snap out at the end who throws his gun got a 2 event ban thats why the refs go for him as he walks off :dance: They were gutted then they got another ban for a gun ramping to 20bps:D after the first point we won 4-0 and were awarded the first point after the ramp infraction.
The language on field is easy to understand after a bit of time but most yell at me in english any way as you can hear my coach at the end of the video during the one on one.Every one speaks perfect english here.

Well yeah, Jono lived on his couch for a while when he was in the UK, and Chris played for us the first time we went to malaysia. He used to be involved with planet eclipse from memory.

I've still got him on MSN
