USSF Outdoor Rules will be played but with the following exceptions:

No Offsides.

Sliding to stop, trap, kick, or pass the ball when there is clearly no danger to an opponent is not slide tacking and is permitted. All other slide tackles (including ones in the box) will result in an indirect free kick.
Indirect Kick-ins will be used instead of throw-ins when the ball is out of play on the sidelines.
The defenders must be at least 5 yards from the ball on ALL kicks.
If the ball hits any of the nets above the field, it will be an indirect kick for the opposing team, closest to the spot where it hit but outside of the goal box.

U-12 age bracket and younger will play 8 versus 8 (7 field players plus a GK).
Co-ed teams must have a minimum of 3 females on the field (not including the GK) at all times.

Yellow cards & red cards will be issued at the referees’ discretion. A yellow card given to a player is at least two minutes off the field. Two yellow cards during the same game will result in an immediate ejection from the game. Three yellow cards accumulated during the season will result in a one game suspension. A red card at any time will result in an immediate ejection from the facility along with a minimum of a one game suspension. Red cards given for fighting or verbal abuse of a referee can carry at least a 2 game suspension. Anyone involved in a fight will receive at least a 3 game suspension. Any team receiving 4 or more red cards in a session will be removed from the league without a refund.
At game start time if a team has 3 or less players, it is a forfeit. There is a $50 forfeit fee due by the start of the next game.
Please note, adult games have a max goal cap of 10. Youth games have a goal cap of 6. Once a goal difference of 10 (or 6 for youth) has been met, the winning team must play a man down. Every 2 more goals after that, another player is to be removed. Once the GD is back to 10 (or 6 for youth), all players can return to play.

Modified 5/21/18

Tiebreaker sequence is as follows:

· 1) Head to Head (tournaments only) 2) Goal differential (Goals for – goals against) 3) Goals for 4) Goals against 5) Penalty kicks (1 for 1)

· If more than 2 teams are tied then coaches will choose numbers to see the order in which they will shoot. Once a team shoots their goalkeeper will go in goal. The rotation will continue for all of the rounds until a winter is decided

· If time is allotted for the final, a 5 minute golden goal overtime will be played and then a penalty kick shootout (5 players) to determine the winner of the final game.
