armbands?

OK, quick question, WTF do armbands do? All I see are these teams wearing them, and I read that in X-Ball or tourneys, if a ref catches you without your armband, you get thrown out of the game. Why is this? What purpose do the armbands represent? Thx.

Before the game starts, all players have an armband. This shows everyone in the game that they are live players. When they are shot out, the judge removes the armband and the player leaves the field. It is an easy visible signal to all playing and reffing and watching that a player is still in the game. If the band is removed then players on both teams know that that player is dead and no longer a threat. Largely if a player still has a band on they are fair game.

There are no armbands in Xball though, due to the fast paced, non stop games. Im pretty sure it's not a problem though. Its pretty easy to tell when someones out

U might have mistaken sweatbands that a few Xball players wear round their arms, but the've got nothing to do with the game. Just for Pimp effect
