Hi,
It is usually rather difficult to find printable 34mm pitches with a reasonnable resolution for BB variants such as BB7s, DeathBowl, Beach Bowl, ...
So here is my small contribution, I made the pitches from ressources found on the net for the most part (old NAF pitches, ads from TFF, etc...) and i designed a few elements myself.
The files are quite big but come out very nicely printed on neoprene.
I hope someone will find them usefull.

BB7s-NAF rules (edit 11-01-2020 : updated tables and fame counter)
BB7s-NAF rules on the snow (edit 11-01-2020 : updated tables and fame counter)
DeathBowl
DeathBowl-sevens
Blood Bowl Soccer
Beach Bowl (edit 11-01-2020 : updated tables and fame counter)
DungeonBowl NAF 2019 set up (edit 07-02-2020)

Enjoy.

Update :
For Hockey lovers there is this variant on midgard : CrossCheck Rules
and the corresponding pitch : CrossCheck pitch

Happy skating

Wow, cool, thank you so much. Just a few weeks ago, I was looking for BB7 Pitches.
So, where would one go to have one of these printed on neoprene?

Okay, I am not good with sizes and math and stuff. What dpi do I have to print the full-size png at, so the size of the squares is 34mm?
Thanks for the help.

IF you download the png on deviantart you can upload the file as is if you order online, it is already at the right DPI for printing with 34mm squares (all the files are)

If you open the files with GIMP and go to "image properties" you'll have all the characteristics of the imagee:
* the size of the printed image (or at which it should be printed)
* the resolution
* etc...

Thanks, those are really nice!

I got the impression that BB7s was a more street level game. Would they necessarily have ads on their field? Or is it similar to the fluff in Blitz Bowl, where these are recruitment games? Just curious.

Even the small football fields around town have advert banners. Apparently it pays to advertise :)

Thank you very much, I am glad you like them.

It is true that originally it was written as an amateur variant of BB, however it is true that 7s is really what you want it to be. (and I like the ads :D )
