2009 Halifax District Playdowns Instructions For Teams

All teams must bring to the pitch a copy of their 2009 approved roster and must have their

player picture ID cards available at the field for inspection. Players who are in attendance

but not appearing on the approved roster, and those for whom a picture ID is not available,

will not be permitted to enter into the game. Clubs will assign field marshals to all playoff

games. It is their responsibility to check the IDs and rosters of competing teams.

 

In accordance with the SNS rules of provincial competitions, no call ups will be permitted

in the playdown games.

 

It is essential that all games start on time. Delays in starting a game will result in that

game being shortened to compensate for the late start. The game times for these play off

games are as follows:

 

Under 12 - 2 thirty (30) minute halves, with 5 minute break

Under 14 - 2 forty (40) minute halves, with 5 minute break

Under 16 - 2 forty (40) minute halves with 5 minute break

Under 18 - 2 forty-five (45) minute halves, with 5 minute break

 

The game sheet must be completed, signed and submitted to the field marshal prior to

verification of the players. The player ID cards should be supplied to the field marshal

when your game sheet has been completed. The field marshal must call-in the game result

within two hours of the game completion to: Mike Maddalena @ 477 -5720.

 

Each team is responsible to pay 50% of the referee fees, so please have the correct change

for your share. This will be provided to the field marshal when you submit your game sheet

and ID cards. We pay the CISL rates for that age group of your team.

 

Each team must supply a good game ball.

 

Please remind your teams that for safety reasons only multi-studded approved soccer boots

will be permitted, players must wear shin-guards, and no jewellery.

 

All teams should bring two sets of jerseys. In the event of a potential color clash, the

AWAY team is responsible to change its color. First place team in the schedule is

home= team

Finally, all discipline matters (RED/YELLOW CARDS), DO NOT carry over into these

play offs.

Any appeals from the playoff competition should be addressed to the HDSA President in

accordance with Rules and Regulations #8.
