Rules
- Main articles: American Inline Hockey League rules
While the American Inline Hockey League follows the general rules of inline hockey, it differs slightly from those used in international games organized by the International Roller Sports Federation (FIRS) such as the World Championships. Infractions of the rules can lead to either the stoppage of play or a penalty call for more serious infractions.
Like most inline hockey competitions, there are no offside or icing infractions.

Famous quotes containing the word rules:
“When I hear the hypercritical quarreling about grammar and style, the position of the particles, etc., etc., stretching or contracting every speaker to certain rules of theirs ... I see that they forget that the first requisite and rule is that expression shall be vital and natural, as much as the voice of a brute or an interjection: first of all, mother tongue; and last of all, artificial or father tongue. Essentially your truest poetic sentence is as free and lawless as a lamb’s bleat.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“In really hard times the rules of the game are altered. The inchoate mass begins to stir. It becomes potent, and when it strikes,... it strikes with incredible emphasis. Those are the rare occasions when a national will emerges from the scattered, specialized, or indifferent blocs of voters who ordinarily elect the politicians. Those are for good or evil the great occasions in a nation’s history.”
—Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)
“The rules of drinking games are taken more serious than the rules of war.”
—Chinese proverb.
