Game Play
All games will be played under the FIFA ‘Laws of the game’ in addition to rules adopted by NO OTHER LEAGUE. Each game will have one certified referee who will officiate the games.
Each game will be 2 x 25-minute halves with a 4-minute half-time. A game is considered official when the first half is complete. Referee has the power to extend due to injury or other stoppage. Referee also has power to end the game early if deemed necessary.
Unlimited substitutions may be made but only during a stoppage under the referee’s discretion.
Rule Changes
There will be no slide tackling on a player in this league. Keepers may slide for saves, but still may be subject to a card if deemed dangerous. First incident will result in a yellow and the second, a red. There will be no offsides.
Roster
All players registered must be the designated age of their league by the start of the season. A full roster is 15 players and minimum is 11. Each team captain is responsible for making sure every player is registered and of age. You must be the designated age of that league by the first game of that session.
A minimum of six (6) players is required to start the game. A game will be called a forfeit if the game
doesn’t start with all registered players on the field ten minutes after scheduled kick-off.
Home Team
The home team is listed first on the schedule and is responsible for the game ball and to change color if both teams clash.
Infractions
First (1) yellow – subbed off, but may come back in on next dead ball
Second (2) yellow – equivalent to red card
Red card – out for the rest of the game and team plays down one player
Multiple Red cards (3) – after a player accumulates a third red card, they will not be allowed to play for the rest of the season. No exceptions.
If at any point a player assaults a referee (spits on, pushes, threatens, etc…) they will be expelled from the league indefinitely.
Co-ed Only
There must be at least 3 women on the field at all times (keeper counts). Teams can have more than 3 women as long as team does not have more than 5 men. Teams need a total of 6 players (at least two women) for an official game to start.
