• Fall Coach/Referee Meeting Presentation

IIn the event teams are tied on the basis of points earned at the conclusion of pool play, a team’s pool play final standings will be determined in accordance with the following sequential tie breaker criteria:

• Winner of head to head competition (this criteria not used if more than two teams tied).
• Fewest number of blowout matches (max goal differential allowed 5)
• Fewest goals allowed
• Winner of most games
• Greatest number of shutout victories (wins only)
• Coin Flip

Above tiebreakers apply to Area play divisions where an Area divisional champion may be required.

• 10U Field Markings
• 12U Field Markings
• 14U/16U/19U Field Markings

(Field size and goal size may vary due to available space/resources.)

Each team is allowed up-to two (2) certified and approved Coaches (i.e. Head Coach and Assistant Coach). Both Coaches must stay within the Coaches' Area during the match, REGARDLESS of whether the area is marked on the field. This area is defined as a space 1-1½ yards back from the touch line and extends 10 yards either side of the halfway line.

(Coaches should use the center circle as a guide when the coaching area is not marked.)

Please be aware that pets are NOT allowed at School fields - AT ANY TIME. The presence of pets at any school field, will lead to the revoking of our permits.

While some cities do allow leashed pets at city parks, they are NEVER allowed at the field during a practice or game.

For the safety of ALL our players and volunteers - please leave your pets at home.
