Matches
Teams must provide the referee with both players' and coaches' pass cards and their official NYCSL Cup roster for each game, with a copy provided for the opposing team's coach. A NYCSL league roster is not valid for NYCSL Cup competition. No player is permitted to play without a pass.
The home team is responsible to provide the game ball(s) and the appropriate size field.
Game format is 8v8 for U9 and U10 teams, with 25-minute halves and a 5-minute half time stoppage. Game format is 9v9 for U11 teams, with 30-minute halves and a 5-minute half time stoppage. Game format is 11v 11for U12 teams, with 30-minute halves and a 5-minute half time stoppage.
Substitutions are at the referee's discretion. A substitution can take place for either team prior to a kick-off, a goal kick, or after the referee stops play for an injury. Unlimited substitutions are allowed. A three-person referee system is preferred, with fees split equally between the teams at the field.
In the event of inclement weather or unplayable field conditions, the home team coach must notify the referee, all visiting coaches and the Match Coordinator of the game cancellation. Notification must be made a minimum of 2 hours prior to the scheduled kick off. Within the 2 hr timeframe preceding the game, only the referee may cancel the game. A canceled game must be rescheduled within 48 hrs.
Disciplinary
A send off (red card) will result in a minimum of a one (1) game suspension. A send off as a result of two cautions will result in the player or coach being suspended for the next match. All suspensions shall commence immediately. If a second game is to be played that day, the suspended player is not eligible and the referee should note it on the game card. The home team is responsible for informing the league that a red card infraction has occurred and the league will inform all parties affected the length of suspension. Referees will return all players/coaches passes to the teams and will list on the Game Card any send-offs with player/coach name and US Club Soccer number, and infraction. Referee will need to fill out a send off report and send it to NYCSL at Kris DeBenedittis. NYCSL reserves the right to impose additional suspensions, depending upon the severity of the offense and accumulation of suspensions.
