The following Kick-off event replaces 8 - Changing Weather:
8 - Reindeer Games: Rowana Forestfoot trots onto the pitch, leading some magical reindeer ready for their training. Each coach randomly selects one of their players on the pitch with a Strength characteristic of 3 or less who does not have the Loner trait. Until the end of this drive, those players are mounted on reindeer and gain the Horns and Leap skills, as well as the Bounding Leap special rule.
Bounding Leap: Once per game, after declaring that they will Leap but before rolling any dice, this player may choose to use this special rule. If they do, this player suffers no negative modifiers for the Agility test to Leap and may choose to re-roll the result.
