[edit] Layout
In Rug Rage, each team had a scoring area. This is where the team had to push balls in order to score. The scoring area had a bar over top of it that created an 11" opening. At the center of the field lay 5 large balls and 20 smaller water-filled balls.
[edit] Gameplay
Teams had to push either the 6" diameter water-filled balls into their score area for 1 point each or the 13" kickballs into the area for 5 points each. In the case of a tie, the team with the most large balls scored won. Since the opening over the goal area was only 11" high, the kickballs had to be lifted over the bar in order to be scored. Each match lasted 2 minutes.
