NUMBER OF ELEPHANTS AND MAHOUT:
A team consists of four elephants. Teams are made up from the pool of elephants and balanced out as fairly as possible bearing in mind size and speed of the elephant. Once the team of elephants has been selected it shall be categorised and marked as A,B,C,D,. Once chosen the elephants can not be changed from one team to another, except in case of injury to an elephant. The umpire and referees will decide which elephant(s) are to be substituted. Wherever possible they will choose an elephant of similar size and speed to replace the injured elephant(s).
The mahout of the elephant's chosen must play the entire tournament on the elephant originally assigned. The mahout cannot be changed at anytime except for injury or circumstances accepted by the Umpires and/or the Referee.
