Handball style game, players can't move with the ball, only hands and heads must be used. players can't cross over into the other side of the pitch

Goals can oly be scored with the head, must be thrown by a teammate

Only the attacker is allowed in the coned area to allow for a free header, it gives time and space for the skill to be performed while still having a competetive edge.

Once the ball is headed in, the opposite team then starts with the ball
