The second is by acquiring penalty points assessed against the opposing team. (In all cases, penalty points are awarded to the team not guilty of committing the penalty. Play does not stop.) The referee officiates from a mezzanine above the court and will keep score and call all penalties.

Four Point Penalty for collisions with excessive speed. The penalty goes against the person most responsible for the collision. Referee judgment call.

Four Point Penalty for pushing off with feet or hands against an opponent's WhirlyBug™ or wall.

Two Point Penalty for goal tending. Raising up in your seat to block a shot so as to be off yourseat. You must keep your seat belt snug.

Two Point Penalty for trying to free up the ball when it has been covered by opponent's scoop on the floor or against the side of his/her WhirlyBug™.
