Regulations

There are two athletes in each team. Men and women, both amateur and professional athletes, are allowed to take part. Each match includes two stages.

Digital Stage

The digital stage is held in the 2x2 format (two players in each team) and is played on a game console. It ends when one team scores 19 points. There is a five-minute break before the physical stage.

Physical Stage

Each team is represented by two athletes in a match held on a basketball court with one basket. This stage lasts for 7 minutes. It ends when either one team scores 39 points or time runs out.

Scoring

Results from both stages are added together and the winning team is the one that has scored the most points. If there is a tie, the winner of the match is determined in a series of three free throws.
