TROPHIES & MEDALS
The players in the
winning team and in the runners up team will receive a trophy to take
away and keep.
All other players
will receive a medal for participating.
PROTESTS & APPEALS
All protests and
appeals should be made to the tournament organisers within 10 minutes of
the completion of the match.
The decision of
the tournament organisers is final.
CODE OF CONDUCT
All players,
managers, team officials, parents and spectators must comply with the
following code of conduct.
We want the
children who take part in our festival to play football in a positive
atmosphere free from foul and abusive language, pressure,
embarrassment and prejudice.
Please help us to
achieve this aim by abiding by this simple code:
Foul or abusive
language from players, spectators or officials will not be tolerated.
Never dispute a
referee’s decision - they can make mistakes, just like you and me.
The health and
safety of players is paramount. Do not encourage players to continue
playing if they are obviously injured or unwell.
Coaches are strongly
advised to give all of their players an equal amount of playing time.
It’s no fun being on the touchline.
Coaches, parents and
spectators are also expected to let all players play without being
screamed and shouted at from the touchlines.
Encourage and
applaud all players, not just those on your team.
THE BALL
All age groups will
use a size 4 ball.
The match ball shall
be provided by the ‘home’ team.
NUMBER OF PLAYERS ON
THE PITCH/SUBSTITUTIONS
All
teams shall play with seven players on the pitch plus a maximum of two
substitutes. In the event of injuries/dismissals, a team can complete a
match with a minimum of five players. Any less and the game is stopped
with the score at that point standing.
Substitutes can be
used on a 'roll off, roll on' basis.
A team squad shall
be made up of a maximum of nine players.
