1.0 - Introduction

Gnomeball is located in the Tree Gnome Stronghold, north-west of Ardougne. Nothing really is needed to get here, but a high Range and Agility is recommended when playing. Gnomeball is a fun and different way to train Agility for those who find doing courses over and over again tedious and boring.

2.0 - Gameplay

This mini game is very simple. The object of the game is to take your gnomeball, run to the other side of the field, and throw it inside the net. To obtain a gnomeball, speak to the referee on the field. There are gnomeballers on the field who will tackle you to prevent you from scoring and there are gnome wingmen who you can pass the ball to. If a gnomeballer steals your gnomeball then you'll need to tackle him to get it back. Two strategies exist that you can use in this mini game and they are both explained below.

2.1 - Strategies
All Out Offensive
Zybez RuneScape Help's Gnomeball Net

This strategy is very simple but has a higher risk of failing. All you do is obtain the gnomeball from the referee and charge straight to the goal. Gnomeballers nearby will try to stop your attempt by tackling you and stealing the ball. Unfortuneatly, this strategy lacks any defence so it doesn't always work.

Pass And Shoot

This strategy takes a bit longer but has a higher chance of working. When you obtain the gnomeball from the referee, charge foward towards the goal. If a gnomeballer tries to stop you, then pass it to a gnome wingman nearby and continue foward. The gnome wingman will pass it back to you so you can score the goal.

3.0 - Rewards and Experience

It doesn't give any stat bonuses but you can throw it to other people to play games with. Beware though that the person you throw it to doesn't have to return it back so make sure you know the person won't steal it.
