Rules:

  • 15 minute running clock games…the clock for the next game will start at 15 minutes, immediately when the previous game ends. When the clock counts down and hits the 13:00 mark, the official will place the ball on the center line, and award the kickoff to the team that places field players and a keeper in place, ready to play first. If the other team is not on the field at the 15:00 mark, the ball is put into play, regardless.
  • When your game finishes, please leave the court immediately.
  • G9-10 (5 v 5) includes keeper

G11-12 (5v5) includes keeper

  • Keepers have 5 seconds to release the ball, once the ball is picked up….keepers may kick, throw, or roll the ball, however, the ball must hit the floor or a player before “half court”. Drop punts are not permitted and will not count towards the ball “hitting the floor before half court”.
  • ALL KICKS ARE INDIRECT…5 seconds to put ball in play, once ball is placed on floor. Defense must be 5 feet away on all restarts. Any foul in the box will be taken on the edge closest to the foul.
  • Players that commit flagrant fouls may be shown a yellow card and sit for 2 minutes. The team will play down a player for the 2 minutes or until a goal is scored. At time of the second offense they must sit remainder of tournament. In the case that it is a straight red or double yellow in the same game the team will play down for the remainder of that game.
  • Substitutions must come off from the side of the field that teams are on and may be done on the “fly”.
  • No using the wall for a “brace”, unless player is falling…..players must treat wall “as if it is not there”….any contact with wall by players will result in an indirect kick for other team.
  • “Boarding” will not be tolerated….any player repeatedly cautioned for this will be yellow carded or ejected from the tournament.
  • No sliding! Keeper may dive to make a save, but no feet firstsliding.
  • Officials decisions are final….
  • Keeper/Goalie box will be clearly marked….keepers may reach out of the box to pick up a ball, but must maintain 1 foot completely in the box while reaching out.

Point System

o 5 points for a win

o 1 point for a shutout (even in a 0-0 tie), both teams get the shutout point, but no tie point

o 1 point for a tie (no tie points in a 0-0 game)

o ½ point for each goal, up to a 5 goal (2 ½ point max)

o Maximum score in game would be a 5-0 victory = 8 ½ points

Tie Breakers

o Head to Head Play

o Goal Differential….all games, however only counting 5 goals max per game

o Goals allowed

o Goals scored….up to 5 per game max

o Golden goal mini game (3 v 3 no keepers)

Over time Rules (playoffs only)

o 5 minute golden goal format

o After the initial 5 minute golden goal format, keepers will be pulled (from this point forward, no player may use their hands in a “goalie capacity”). A field player may play “in the goal”, if the team chooses, however, may not use their hands. The clock will then be reset to 2 minutes and the teams will play a 4 v 4 format for that 2 minute period. Each team then must pull a field player and the clock will be reset to 2 minutes. We continue this format until there are only 2 players left for each team. At this point, the clock is turned off and play is resumed until there is a winner. Normal substitutions rules throughout all stages of overtime.

A Medical Release form/ roster must be handed in before tournament play. Please use the new universal form found on the Pal-Mac website.
