This thread is for rosters for the football (soccer) Blind World Cup (signups here (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=508401), RP thread here (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=509215), results & schedule here (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=509532)).
Teams consist in five players on the field (goalkeeper included), plus substitutes of course.
Information on blind football:
Teams consist of 4 field players and 1 goalkeeper. Regular IBSA [International Blind Sports Association] championship games are played on a 20x40m field and consist of two 25-minute halves.
Players are considered to be blind to the highest degree (B1). Possible variations in degrees of blindness are irrelevant as all players wear eye patches. Only goalkeepers are sighted and it is they and team-guides positioned behind the opposing goal, who direct the field players. The ball has several compartments with beads in it, making it audible when it moves, thus allowing players to track it.

Full rules of the game can be found here (http://www.ibsa.es/eng/deportes/football/IBSA%20Futsal%20Rulebook%202005-2009.txt). In addition to those already mentioned, these should be remembered:
* If at any time one team has fewer than three players left on the field (goalkeeper included), the match is ended. (In practice, for scorination purposes, this won't happen.)
* Half-time lasts ten minutes.
* If the goalkeeper plays outside the goalkeeper's area, or interferes with the game outside that area, the opposite team is awarded a penalty kick.
* If a player is sent off, another player may be brought in to replace him after five full minutes, or after the other team has scored a goal (whichever happens first).
* If the match ends in a draw and a winner is needed, extra time and penalty kicks can be used. Since the official rules don't mention the length of extra time, I'm setting it at 16 minutes (two times eight). Penalty kicks will be used if there's no winner after extra time. Each side takes three kicks (more if needed to determine a winner). Obviously only blind players can play penalty kicks.
You can post your roster here, along with the usual information on what your opponent can do if he / she RPs first (RP injuries to your players, hand out yellow or red cards to your players, godmod events, choose your goalscorers...).
Update: Style modifiers allowed. (Thanks, R-T!) You can pick any between -5 (heavy defence) and +5 (heavy attack). If you select none, your style modifier will be 0 (balanced) by default.
Any other information on your team, including kits, can also go here.
