• Have Fun!
• Facilitate the fun for others!
• No referees = self-regulation
• NEW: Share team players with the opposing team if they are short-handed or if a team is dominating the game.
• Each team must field at least 2 women at all times (preferable 3).
  • If no women show, play no more than 9 men unless the opposing team agrees otherwise.
• Captains must manage their teams.
  • Sub fairly. Calm down or sub out aggressive players.
  • Dangerous or hotheaded players will be removed from the league.
• Free kicks are indirect and should be taken from outside the penalty area.
• Free substitutions – players may sub out anytime by simply leaving the field.
• Teams call offsides on themselves.
  • Ignore calls from the defense.
  • Do not call offside on newbies unless they’re way behind the defensive line and waiting for the ball.
• Rainouts: You’ll be notified by e-mail if games are cancelled (extremely rare)
• Newbie Rules:
  • New players wear an armband. Experience players should let them play the ball.
  • Help them grow and enjoy the sport

  • Play controlled. If you slide tackle, you’re benched for at least 5 minutes.
  • If accidental (e.g. slipping), it’s still a free kick.
• Only registered players may play.
• Clean up the field after your game.
• You may pass the ball back to your goalie and they can pick it up.
• No profanity.
  • Games are family-friendly. Captains: make sure your team keeps it clean.
  • If someone is out of hand, sub them out.
• Captain Check-in:
  • Notify Chase via phone call, text, or email if there are issues with a player or team.
    • Was everything fine?
    • Any incidents? Provide names if necessary (1st incident = warning, 2nd = out of the league)
  • Teams will be dropped if multiple players are causing issues.
• 3-Goal Rule
  • No more than 3 goals per player per game will count.
  • After that, support teammates – don’t dominate.
