50% Play
• Every team – every division needs to play each child 50% of the game
• NO EXCEPTIONS

BLOW OUTS!
• Simple logic – DO NOT RUN UP THE SCORE
• Tiebreaker process only sees 3 goals
• Thought process of “I don’t want to hold my kids back” is flawed
• Tell them to work on passing, spacing, etc. during a blow out
• Repeated blow outs will be brought to A&D

Forfeits
• DO NOT FORFEIT
• Home team still has to pay referees
• More than two forfeits in season will result in coach coming to A&D
• The goal is for the kids to play as much soccer as possible. Bring the kids you have, grab a few from the other team and PLAY SOME SOCCER !
