All Lunchtime Sports Competition Indoor Soccer
Games will be played in the Recreation Hall. The games start at 1.05pm and 1.35pm
respectively. The games will consist of 2 x 12 minute halves.
1.
Each team will consist of 6 players on the field at
any given time.
2.
Teams will have to produce a team sheet with a maximum
of ten (10) players. Only those players on the team sheet are eligible to play.
Teams will have 2 weeks to finalise their team sheet and no adjustments can be made
for any reason after the due date. Players can play for one team only.
3.
All walls are in bounds, except when the ball touches the
wall inside the goal area. The goal keeper is the only person who can touch the
ball inside the goal area. No other person is allowed inside the goal area. The goal
keeper is not allowed to use his hands outside the goal area, but he is allowed to kick
the ball outside this goal area.
SCORING GOALS
4.
For a goal to be scored, it must be kicked from inside the
front half of the court. A goal cannot be scored from a kick in the back half. No goal
can be scored inside the goal area.
5.
No-one (with the exception of the goal keeper) is permitted to
touch the ball inside the goal area. This means that any player (defender or attacker)
is allowed to run through the goal area as long as he does not touch the ball.
If a defender touches the ball inside the goal area, a penalty is awarded to the attacking
team. If an attacker touches the ball inside the goal area, a free kick is awarded to the
goal keeper.
INTERCHANGE OF PLAYERS
6.
An interchange can only occur when there is a break in play,
eg. a goal is scored or a free kick awarded.

Slide tackles are not allowed. A yellow card may be issued
for such an offence.
