5-3 question.....

(1/1)

I am pretty new to foosball.....

the way in understand the rules, from the serve you have 10 seconds to move from 5 to3 bar. once at the three bar you have 15 seconds. Correct?

once a ball is stopped or pinned on the 5 bar it then has to be touched by two guys before being passed.
does that apply to the 3 bar also?

https://www.tablesoccer.org/rules/documents/GBR-2022%20ITSF%20Standard%20Matchplay%20Rules_def.pdf    the link is for current ITSF rules...  I suggest reading through rule book, of course that will probably lead to more questions :)   

ShopTeacher:
You can shoot from the 5 bar as well. Cannot pass a stopped ball but can shoot a stopped ball. Three touch rule before forwarding the ball, only two wall touches (leeway for to get the ball off the wall), ready protocol... etc. You have 10 sec on 5 bar and 15 sec on 3 bar/defense rods. You seem to be correct with your assessment in your question. 

Once on 3 bar... nowhere to pass to... time to shoot. Passing rules do not apply.

wozment22:
but just cannot shoot from the 5 Bar during the opening sequence, or the kickoff? or just have to complete the opening sequence first?

bolt115:
Just complete the lateral "opening sequence"   then you can shoot
