August 20-21   Yakima Sunburn Invitational Co-Rec Tournament.  Tournament website click here.  Contact for assignments: Ron Sabari 966-6735 ronsabari@aol.com

 

Referees:
 
We hope to be in good shape for referees.  However, there will be games that are not covered, it happens every season.
I encourage you to get the game played if possible.  If you can find a volunteer to do the game I pay them $30.  Just get their name and address so I can send them a check.
Captains should bring a whistle, paper and pen to their matches just in case.  If the teams are not comfortable playing each other without a licensed referee due to the level of play, or other factors, then do not play the game and we will try to reschedule.
 
Players Cards.
 
All player must be registered with the state office, WSSA, to play in our league.  Cards may be purchased at Play it Again Sports  at 2802 W Nob Hill.  Players receive a temporary card and may play until WSSA mails their card.  The referee are instructed to pick up player cards before the game and return them at the end of play, unless they keep them due to a Red Card.

Open Division
This season we have 4 teams in Open.  There is the possibility of adding a fifth.  The teams will play round robin and the team with the highest points for the season will be the 1st place winner.  We will award trophies for 1st - 4th.
 
Over 30 Division
This season we have 8 Over 30 teams.  We will award trophies for 1st - 4th.
In round 1 the teams will play each other 1 time.  The result of the points awarded will place the teams in bracket A or bracket B
Bracket A will play for 1st-4th and the trophies.
Bracket B will play for "fun".
In round 2 the teams in the brackets will play each other 1 time.
The results of round 2 will determine:
    In bracket A who plays the championship games for 1st/2nd    and 3rd/4th.
    In bracket B who plays the consolation games for 5th/ 6th        and 7th/8th
 
 
Field Lining:
We may need to do some field lining this year.  Rebecca Cuevas has volunteered to help, we need other volunteers to help as well.
 
 
Equipment.  Every team is responsible to bring one net and a game ball to the matches.  If a team does not have a net, please let me know and I can arrange to loan one until the team can aquire their own.
 
 
 
Rules:
 
A quick review of rules.
 
We follow FIFA rules with these exceptions
 
Substitutions.        Substitutions are unlimited
                            A team can substitute:
                                On their own throw-in
                                On their own Corner Kick
                            
                            Both teams may substitute:
                                On a kick-off
                                On any goal kick
 
                            An injured player may be substituted
                                The other team may also replace a like number of players at that time.
 
                            A Yellow Carded Player must leave the field, a substitution is allowed for that player.
 
Player;                The maximum number of players on the field is 5 men, 5 women and a goalkeeper of either gender.
                            A team may play with less than five of a gender but may not increase the other gender to make it up,
                            the team playes short.
                            A team must have a minimum of 7 players to play a match.
 
Women                May protect their breasts with their arms as long as their arms are tight to the body.  If their arms are away from
                            the body they may be called for handling the ball.
 
Ages.                    All players must be of age at game time. 
                            Open is age 18 and over. 
                            Over 30 is age 30 or over with the exception of a spouse that is under 30 as long as the other spouse is over 30.
                                    This rule is subject to review by the captains this season, a proposal for having all players age 30 or more
                                            is pending captains review.
 
Yellow Cards:        An addendum to the rules, any player receiving their first yellow card during the match must leave the field.
                            The player is eligible to return to the match at the next substitution.
                            (The second yellow card in a match is treated as a Red Card violation and the player is ejected.)
 
Slide Tackling        There is no slide tackling in this league. 
                            A slide will result in game stoppage and a foul awarded. 
                            Repeated sliding will result in a Yellow Card.
 
 
We will distribute at the fields:  schedules,  a copy of the rules, and game score sheets.
