GAME ATTIRE

  • Every player should be dressed alike. We have had many games where players have green shorts and white shirt while the rest of the team is in white.  Also, be sure to have the same color socks.  At younger ages we will play the game ,  but older ages the referee may make the player sit out . (Especially at tournaments) .   
  • Players Shirt,Shorts must be visible.  (Keeper is exception to the rule)
  • Shorts must be worn over any sweatpants or warm-ups
  • As the cold weather approaches, here is the list of items O.K. to wear:
    1. Head Bands  (no hats)
    2. Armor wear Shirts or Pants under uniform
    3. Long sleeve t-shirts
    4. Gloves are ok

MYSL MGRS:

  • Using Pass Card Players?
    •  A player may not move down a division or an age group (even if otherwise age appropriate).  When moving up, a player may not move up more than two age groups.
    • Teams playing full sided games (11 V 11 players), can move up NO more than THREE PLAYERS for any given game.
    • Teams playing small sided games (6 V 6 and 8 V 8 players), can move up NO more than two players for any given game.
  • Pass Card Responsibilities:
    • It is the responsibility of team managers to check opponent’s pass cards prior to the start of each game.  Players who arrive late must check in with the referee and present their pass card prior to playing in the match.
    • Players who do not have pass cards must print their name and birth date and sign the back of the white original lineup sheet.  It should be noted that the player did not have a pass card next to his name on the front of the game sheet.
    • Managers who fail to check pass cards prior to the start of a game may not challenge the eligibility of any player after the game is started.  Player eligibility shall not be grounds for a protest if the manager failed to check pass cards.
  • Coaching/Spectators:
    • Coaching is to take place from the sidelines between the center line and the penalty area line.  The home team has their choice of sideline, or end of the field in the cases where only one side of a field is available. 
    •  All family, friends, relatives and team officials must remain on the team’s side or end of the field, and the coach is responsible for their unacceptable behavior.
