Sportsmanship:

 - When the Goal Differential is 6 or more Coaches will be encouraged to challenge their team to connect passes, use their non-dominant foot, do a move before passing or any other challenge they see fit.  This tournament is about developing skills and if your team’s skills are clearly above that of your competition you are encouraged to challenge your team, not to see how many goals you can score against a clearly weaker team.

 - There is a zero tolerance for any negativity/bad sportsmanship towards referee’s/coaches and especially players. The event is about enjoying the game and having fun, persons may be asked to leave if they do not abide by the same principles.

 

Field Layout/Players/Length of game:

 - All free-kicks are direct

 - Fouls outside 2pt shooting line are direct, fouls inside are indirect, 8yds for a wall

- PK’s are taken at the edge of the arc, with the shooter getting one step back before taking the PK.

- In the event of playoffs, if after golden goal the game is still tied, PK’s will start at midfield, shooter may dribble ball toward goal, 5 seconds to shoot, keeper may come off their line once shooter touches the ball, all other players remain at half until KEEPER touches the ball or it bounces off a post.

 - 2-point shooting line! Goals behind this line count as 2 points (referee’s decision on whether they saw foot behind/on the line/over the line when ball was struck) NO 2pt OWN GOALS!

 - GK’s cannot come out of the goal area, in doing so they concede a penalty kick.

 - Outfield players CANNOT go into the GK goal area at any time! Attackers will give away a goal kick to the other team for entering the goalie box.

 - Defenders will concede a penalty kick for entering the goalie box.

- No punts or bounce off the ground kicks. Service from hands and kicks off the ground are fine.  If a Goalkeeper punts the ball at any time a Free kick at 2 point line nearest the offending team’s goal is awarded.
