Four square was
the starting point.

Gridball is the system.

The Grid

The court
is the field.

Four equal quadrants create a game of territory. Prime, Major, Minor, and Entry are places on the court, not fixed player positions.

Court specifications & full rules
Prime

The highest quadrant. Hold your place under pressure.

Major

Valuable territory on the way to Prime.

Minor

The next step up from Entry.

Entry

Where the next player joins the Grid.

Complete players.
No fixed positions.

Attack. Defend. Recover. Rotate.

Each team has two players on the Grid at a time. Teammates wait off the court and enter as rotation demands. Every player needs to adapt as their place on the Grid changes.

The professional league model uses 14-player co-ed rosters: seven male-identifying and seven female-identifying players. There is no gender requirement for who is on the Grid.
