The laws of power soccer
The laws of power soccer are based on the 18 laws of the game, as laid out by FIFA, with some key adaptations:
Court Dimensions
The game is played indoors on a court measuring 30 meters by 18 meters.
Goalpost Setup
Goalposts are represented by two upright markers (cones or pylons) placed 6 meters apart; there is no crossbar.
Ball Size
A larger ball, approximately 13 inches in diameter, is used to keep the ball on the ground.
Team and Game Format
Matches are played 4 vs. 4, with squads of up to 8 players for substitutions. Games consist of two 20-minute halves.
Two-on-One Rule
The "two-on-one" rule replaces offside. If two teammates and an opponent are within 3 meters of the ball, an indirect free kick is awarded to the opposition. Goalkeepers are exempt from this rule.
Goal Box Rules
Only two defenders are allowed in the goal box at a time, while attackers have no such restrictions.
Kick-Ins
A kick-in replaces traditional throw-ins for restarting play.
Contact Rules
Some contact is allowed but must involve contact between guards. Ramming or using other parts of the wheelchair is prohibited.
