TOURNAMENT RULES
All teams must sign in at the registrations tent at least 45 minutes before the first game kick off with their completed TEAM REGISTRATION FORM.
The REGISTRATION tent will be clearly marked on the day, along with the referee’s tent and first aid.
All Games will commence on the Airhorn and finish on the airhorn
Team changes will be swift after the final “air horn” is sounded so please ensure after your game you come off the playing area and give your team talks on the side of the pitch.
We need to maintain a high level of time keeping ensuring the event runs smoothly, so remember as the game time is on the air horn. The game will not be stopped for fouls, throw in’s, or disputes, so please continue swiftly.
PLEASE REMEMBER THE REFEREES DECISION IS FINAL – THE REFEREE IS IN CHARGE OF ALL GAMES.
We do not want to be running around finding teams, so please ensure that you set up camp at pitch side.
Any team not at their pitch at their designated KO time will forfeit the game.
This being the case the points will be awarded to the opposition and a score of 2-0 will be recorded.
The format for each age group will be 6 v 6 (Maximum 10 Players Per team)
The first stages of the tournament will be run on a league basis, three points for a win, one for a draw and no points for a loss.
Thereafter, when the teams are split into the 4 groups, the first placed teams of each group go through to the Champions League, the 2nd placed teams of each group progress to the Europa Cup stages, 3rd placed teams of each group progress to the Premier League Cup stages, 4th placed teams of each group progress to the Championship Cup stages and the 5th placed teams after the group stages will be eliminated.
For the Girls (all age groups) and U15 mixed, we have only two groups. Therefore, the first placed and 2nd placed teams of each group go through to the Champions League, the 3rd and 4th placed teams of each group progress to the Europa Cup stages and the 5th placed teams after the group stages will be eliminated.
Group Stages – 12-minute straight
Semi Finals – 12-minute straight
Finals – 15-minute straight
GROUP STAGES
+/- Goal difference will be applied to ALL group stage games.
If 2 teams are level on points and have the same goal difference the “head-to-head” score will come in to effect
If the 2 teams still cannot be separated a penalty shoot-out will determine a winner.
KNOCK OUTS AND FINALS
If any game finishes in a drawn game, penalties will take place
U7 and U8 – a maximum of 3 penalties will be taken per team
U9 to U15 – a maximum of 5 penalties will be taken per team
If teams cannot be separated after the designated penalties, sudden death will determine a winner
NOTE – Only the players on the field after the final whistle can take penalties, no other player! All other players will remain on the side line! All players taking penalties must remain on the half-way line before taking a penalty.
HAVE A GREAT TOURNAMENT AND PLEASE ENSURE GREAT SPORTSMANSHIP AT ALL TIMES. PLEASE ENSURE THE FA RESPECT PROGRAMME IS FOLLOWED AND REMEMBER, THIS IS ABOUT THE KIDS.
