R. A. P. IT™

"REACT AND PASS IT"

What is R.A.P. IT™️?

R.A.P. IT ™️ (React And Pass IT™️) is a fast-growing, trampoline paddle sports game that blends elements of tennis, badminton, ping-pong, volleyball, etc. all in to one. It is played on a court with 2 teams of 4-5 players per team competing against one another to gain the highest amount of points within a time limit.

Easy to learn but hard to master, played with a string ball that DOES NOT BOUNCE. Key rules include the "three-bounce limit" per interaction with IT*

Teams

  • 5 players per team

  • Each team must form a circle and be 5 feet apart from one another.

  • 3 bounce limit per interaction with IT* per player

  • 4+ bounces = 15 second runoff penalty (yellow flag)

  • No penalty if/when IT* is passed back to a player who’s already successfully R. A. P. IT* while in the current sequence.

  • (If) IT* is dropped between team members a new sequence is generated (R. A. P. IT* ref MUST initiate new sequence)

  • (3) 10-minute rounds

  • Players change positions each round.

  • (2) 1-minute time outs per team per round.
