Normal laws of rugby apply; a knock on etc. results in a turn over.
The attacking team gets unlimited touches.
A player is touched only when the defender has made a two handed touch, you can change this to one hand if you wish.
Defenders cannot hold the attacker, nor can the attacker use significant force to push through defenders.
Defenders who make a touch go to the touchline where an assistant coach will have an activity waiting for them, doesn't have to be fitness related - a passing activity will be fine. They stay there until the attack scores.
As each defender leaves the pitch, the attacker has an increasing advantage in terms of numbers and available space.
If a player is touched: they stop, set the ball down, stand over it, and the scrum half is allowed to move the ball again to restart the attack.
The defence must remain onside following a touch. Only when the support player passes the ball out can the defence press up on the attack.
If the defence goes offside or operates illegally, the attack gains 10 meters.
Don't forget to switch the teams around and to count how many defending players are on the pitch when the attack scores.
he winning team is the team that can score with the most defenders on the pitch.
Tries only, no conversions - keep the game tempo high.
There is no kicking.
