The spring season runs from late April late June and the fall season runs from early September early November. Players are provided with a team shirt and are required to have shin guards and appropriate footwear depending on age level. Players in the Pre-K division must wear sneakers.

12 Format and Objectives: Pre-K Greenbush Youth Soccer Club Overview Pre-K soccer is for players who are not yet enrolled in Kindergarten.

To assist with maintaining the flow of the game, use discretion, and allow play to continue if good soccer is still being played along the sidelines and endlines. If the play continues parallel to the sideline or endline, and does not go significantly out of bounds coaches will have discretion to allow play to continue. While play may continue, coaches shall keep in mind the rules of the game and player safety. Under no circumstances will play continue if the players are near spectators, chairs, bags, across the back of the goal net, or a significant distance from the playing field. Flow of play and stoppage of play may be discussed between the two coaches prior to the start of the game Coaches are asked to use a whistle so the kids can learn to respond to it. It is often difficult to get the attention of the players by voice only. 10. The Method of Scoring A goal is scored when the whole of the ball passes over the goal line, between the goalposts and under the crossbar. 11. Offside In 2/3 recreational soccer, the offside rule is not enforced. 12. Fouls and Misconduct Slide tackles are not allowed Play is generally not stopped for minor infractions. If a player commits a foul, but play continues with minimal impact from the foul, a coach can find an appropriate moment to reinforce the rules of the game with that player If a foul occurs that disrupts the flow of play, an indirect kick can be awarded to the player that was fouled. 30

31 13. Free Kicks If play is stopped for a foul or injury, it is restarted with a free kick. This is an indirect kick (a goal may not be scored directly off of the kick). During a free kick, the defending team should stand 5 yards from the ball. 14. The Penalty Kick There are no penalty kicks in 2/3 recreational soccer. If a foul occurs within the penalty box area and needs to be called, the resulting free kick will be rewarded at a location outside of the penalty area. 15. The Throw-in When the ball goes over the sideline and a coach elects to have a player restart play, this is done with a throw-in by the team that did not touch the ball last, in the vicinity of where the ball left the field of play. The throw-in is taken with the players keeping both feet on the ground, and throwing the ball from behind his/her head with two hands. The coach may remain with the player to encourage them to restart play If a throw-in is done incorrectly, play may be stopped, and the same player may re-take the throw-in after an explanation from a coach. 16. Headers There is no heading the ball at this level. Heading the ball will result in an indirect kick awarded to the opposing team. 17. The Goal Kick When the offensive team plays the ball over the endline and a coach elects to have a player restart play, this is done with a goal kick in the vicinity of the defending team s goal. The coach may remain with the player to encourage them to restart play During a goal kick, all members of the opposing team should be moved back to within the vicinity of the midfield line and allow the kicking team at least one touch on the ball prior to defending There is no punting the ball at this level. 18. The Corner Kick When the defending team plays the ball over their own endline and a coach elects to have a player restart play, this is done with restart by the offensive team from the corner closest to where the ball left play. The coach may remain with the player to encourage them to restart play During a corner kick, all members of the opposing team should be moved at least 5 yards away from the ball. 31

32 19.

Casts may be worn if they are safely padded, the player has a licensed physician's approval to play with a cast, and it's not dangerous to him/herself or anyone else Slide Tackles: Slide tackles are not allowed.

One foot away from the outer edge of the face-off spot, two lines shall be drawn parallel with the side boards that shall be four feet (4')in length and eighteen inches (18') apart. Parallel to the end boards, commencing at the end of the line nearest to the face-off spot, a line shall extend two feet ten inches (2'10') in length. All lines shall be two inches (2') in width. See diagram on page v preceding the table of contents. The location of the face-off spots shall be fixed in the following manner: Along a line twenty feet (20') from each goal line and parallel to it, mark two points twenty-two feet (22') on both sides of the straight line joining the center of the two goals. Each such point shall be the center of a face-off spot and circle Ice Cleaning - Aside from the normal ice resurfacing that is performed during the intermissions between each period of play, the following snow removal activities shall be performed: (i) During each commercial time-out, the ice cleaning crew shall remove snow from the goal crease area, in front of the players and penalty benches and from side to side from the top of the circles to the end boards (ideally, the entire end zone from the blue lines in). (ii) During the regular season, at the end of the third period in a tied game and prior to the commencement of the five minute overtime period, the entire ice surface shall be shoveled by arena personnel utilizing the same procedures as are utilized during TV time-outs. (iii) During the regular season, at the end of the five minute overtime period in a tied game and prior to the commencement of the shootout, the entire ice surface shall be shoveled by arena personnel utilizing the same procedures as are utilized during TV time-outs. (iv) During overtime in the playoffs, the procedure outlined in (i) above will take place at the first stoppage of play following the 10:00 mark of the period.

The goal posts and crossbar shall be painted in red and all other exterior surfaces shall be painted in white. 2.2 Nets - There shall be attached to each goal frame a net of approved design made of white nylon cord which shall be draped in such a manner as to prevent the puck coming to rest on the outside of it, yet strung in a manner that will keep the puck in the net. A skirt of heavy white nylon fabric or heavyweight white canvas shall be laced around the base plate of the goal frame in such a way as to protect the net from being cut or broken. This protective padding must be attached in a manner that will not restrict the puck from completely crossing the goal line.

Prior to the game, if an official (on-ice or off-ice) notices that a player is in uniform but has not been included on the Official Report, the Referee shall bring this to the attention of the offending team so that the necessary correction can be made to the Official Report (and no penalty is assessed). 5.2 Ineligible Player - Only players on the list submitted to the Official Scorer before the game may participate in the game. The determining factor when considering whether or not a player is eligible is that the player s name, and not necessarily the player s number, must be correctly listed by the Manager or Coach of that team. Whenever an ineligible player is identified to the Referee, the ineligible player will be removed from the game and the Club shall not be able to substitute another player from its roster. No additional penalties are to be assessed but a report of the incident must be submitted to the Commissioner. For an ineligible goalkeeper, see 5.3. If a goal is scored when an ineligible player is on the ice (whether he was involved in the scoring or not), the goal will be disallowed. This only applies to the goal scored at the stoppage of play whereby the player was deemed to be ineligible. All other goals scored previously by the ineligible player s team (with him on the ice or not) shall be allowed. The ineligible player will be removed from the game and the Club shall not be able to substitute another player from its roster. No additional penalties are to be assessed but a report of the incident must be submitted to the Commissioner. 5.3 Goalkeeper - Each team shall be allowed one goalkeeper on the ice at one time. The goalkeeper may be removed and another skater substituted. Such substitute shall not be permitted the privileges of the goalkeeper. Each team shall have on its bench, or on a chair immediately 6

18 SECTION 2 - TEAMS beside the bench, a substitute goalkeeper who shall, at all times, be fully dressed and equipped ready to play. Except when both goalkeepers are incapacitated, no skater in the playing roster in that game shall be permitted to wear the equipment of the goalkeeper. In regular League and Playoff games, if both listed goalkeepers are incapacitated, that team shall be entitled to dress and play any available goalkeeper who is eligible. This goalkeeper is eligible to sit on the player s bench, in uniform. In the event that the two regular goalkeepers are injured or incapacitated in quick succession, the third goalkeeper shall be provided with a reasonable amount of time to get dressed, in addition to a two-minute warm-up (except when he enters the game to defend against a penalty shot). If, however, the third goalkeeper is dressed and on the bench when the second goalkeeper becomes incapacitated, the third goalkeeper shall enter the game immediately and no warm-up is permitted. The recalling of minor league goalkeepers (as a result of suspensions incurred to both goalkeepers under Rule 11 Goalkeeper s Equipment) to ensure a complete lineup for subsequent games shall be deemed to be an emergency recall and subject to the twenty-three (23) man roster limitations. 5.4 Coaches and Team Personnel - No one but players in uniform, nonplaying team personnel duly registered on the Roster Sheet as the Manager, Coach(es), Trainer, Equipment Manager, etc. shall be permitted to occupy the benches so provided. One non-uniformed player shall be permitted on the players bench in a coaching capacity. He must be indicated on the Roster Sheet submitted by the Coach to the Official Scorer prior to the start of the game. Rule 6 Captain and Alternate Captains 6.1 Captain - One Captain shall be appointed by each team, and he alone shall have the privilege of discussing with the Referee any questions relating to interpretation of rules which may arise during the progress of a game. He shall wear the letter C, approximately three inches (3') in height and in contrasting color, in a conspicuous position on the front of his sweater. No co-captains are permitted. Either one Captain and no more than two Alternate Captains, or no Captain and no more than three Alternate Captains are permitted (see 6.2). Only the Captain, when invited to do so by the Referee, shall have the privilege of discussing any point relating to the interpretation of rules. Any Captain, Alternate Captain or any player who comes off the bench and makes any protest or intervention with the officials for any purpose shall be assessed a minor penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct under Rule 39 Abuse of Officials. Should this protest continue, he may be assessed a misconduct penalty, and if it further continues, a game misconduct penalty shall be warranted. A complaint about a penalty is NOT a matter relating to the 7

19 SECTION 2 - TEAMS interpretation of the rules and a minor penalty shall be imposed against any Captain, Alternate Captain or any other player making such a complaint. The Referee and Official Scorer shall be advised, prior to the start of each game, the name of the Captain and the Alternate Captains of both teams. No playing Coach or playing Manager or goalkeeper shall be permitted to act as Captain or Alternate Captain. 6.2 Alternate Captains If the permanent Captain is not on the ice, Alternate Captains (not more than two) shall be accorded the privileges of the Captain. Alternate Captains shall wear the letter A approximately three inches (3') in height and in contrasting color, in a conspicuous position on the front of their sweaters. Only when the Captain is not in uniform, the Coach shall have the right to designate three Alternate Captains. This must be done prior to the start of the game. Rule 7 Starting Line-up 7.1 Starting Line-up - Prior to the start of the game, at the request of the Referee, the Manager or Coach of the visiting team is required to name the starting line-up to the Referee or Official Scorer. Prior to the start of the game, the Manager or Coach of the home team, having been advised by the Official Scorer the names of the starting line-up of the visiting team, shall name the starting line-up of the home team. This information shall be conveyed by the Official Scorer to the Coach of the visiting team. No change in the starting line-up of either team as given to the Official Scorer, or in the playing line-up on the ice, can be made unless reviewed and approved by the Referee prior to the start of the game. 7.2 Violation - For an infraction of this rule, a bench minor penalty shall be imposed upon the offending team, provided such infraction is called to the attention of the Referee before the second face-off in the first period takes place. This is an appeal play and must be brought to the Referee s attention prior to the second face-off in the game. There is no penalty to the requesting team if their appeal is unsustained. The determining factor when considering whether or not a player or goalkeeper is listed in the starting line-up is that the player or goalkeeper s name, and not necessarily the player or goalkeeper s number, must be correctly listed by the Manager or Coach of that team. In the event a team scores on the first shift of the game, and it is brought to the attention of the Referee by the opposing team that the team that scored did not have the correct starting line-up on the ice, the goal shall be allowed and a bench minor penalty assessed to the offending team for having an improper starting line-up. If the team that scores the goal on the first shift of the game challenges the starting line-up of the opposing team and the opposing team did not have the correct starting line-up, the scoring of the goal would nullify the bench 8

20 SECTION 2 - TEAMS minor penalty and no further penalties would be assessed. Rule 8 Injured Players 8.1 Injured Player - When a player is injured or compelled to leave the ice during a game, he may retire from the game and be replaced by a substitute, but play must continue without the teams leaving the ice. During the play, if an injured player wishes to retire from the ice and be replaced by a substitute, he must do so at the players bench and not through any other exit leading from the rink. This is not a legal player change and therefore when a violation occurs, a bench minor penalty shall be imposed. If a penalized player has been injured, he may proceed to the dressing room without the necessity of taking a seat on the penalty bench. If the injured player receives a minor penalty, the penalized team shall immediately put a substitute player on the penalty bench, who shall serve the penalty until such time as the injured player is able to return to the game. He would replace his teammate on the penalty bench at the next stoppage of play. If the injured player receives a major penalty, the penalized team shall place a substitute player on the penalty bench before the penalty expires and no other replacement for the penalized player shall be permitted to enter the game except from the penalty bench. For violation of this rule, a bench minor penalty shall be imposed. Should the injured penalized player who has been replaced on the penalty bench return to his players bench prior to the expiration of his penalty, he shall not be eligible to play until his penalty has expired. This includes coincidental penalties when his substitute is still in the penalty box awaiting a stoppage in play. The injured player must wait until his substitute has been released from the penalty box before he is eligible to play. If, however, there is a stoppage of play prior to the expiration of his penalty, he must then replace his teammate on the penalty bench and return to play once his penalty has expired. When a player is injured so that he cannot continue play or go to his bench, the play shall not be stopped until the injured player s team has secured control of the puck. If the player s team is in control of the puck at the time of injury, play shall be stopped immediately unless his team is in a scoring position. In the case where it is obvious that a player has sustained a serious injury, the Referee and/or Linesman may stop the play immediately. When play has been stopped by the Referee or Linesman due to an injured player, or whenever an injured player is attended to on the ice by the Trainer or medical personnel, such player must be substituted for immediately. This injured player cannot return to the ice until play has resumed. When play is stopped for an injured player, the ensuing face-off shall be conducted at the face-off spot in the zone nearest the location of the puck when the play was stopped. When the injured player s team has control of the puck in the attacking zone, the face-off shall 9

21 SECTION 2 - TEAMS be conducted at one of the face-off spots outside the blue line in the neutral zone. When the injured player is in his defending zone and the attacking team is in possession of the puck in the attacking zone, the face-off shall be conducted at one of the defending team s endzone face-off spots. 8.2 Injured Goalkeeper - If a goalkeeper sustains an injury or becomes ill, he must be ready to resume play immediately or be replaced by a substitute goalkeeper and no additional time shall be allowed by the Referee for the purpose of enabling the injured or ill goalkeeper to resume his position. The substitute goalkeeper shall be allowed a two (2) minute warm-up during all pre-season games. No warm-up shall be permitted for a substitute goalkeeper in all regular League or Playoff games. The Referee shall report to the Commissioner for disciplinary action any delay in making a goalkeeper substitution. The substitute goalkeeper shall be subject to the regular rules governing goalkeepers and shall be entitled to the same privileges. When a substitution for the regular goalkeeper has been made, such regular goalkeeper shall not resume his position until the next stoppage of play. For a violation, a minor penalty for delay of game shall be assessed. When play has been stopped by the Referee or Linesman due to an injured goalkeeper, such goalkeeper must be substituted for only if he has to proceed to the players bench to receive medical attention. If the Trainer has come onto the ice to attend to the goalkeeper and there is no undue delay, the goalkeeper may remain in the game without substitute. However, no additional time shall be permitted by the Referee for the purpose of enabling the injured goalkeeper to resume his position (i.e. no warm-up). 8.3 Blood A player who is bleeding or who has visible blood on his equipment or body shall be ruled off the ice at the next stoppage of play. Such player shall not be permitted to return to play until the bleeding has been stopped and the cut or abrasion covered (if necessary). It is required that any affected equipment and/or uniform be properly decontaminated or exchanged. 10

22 SECTION 3 - EQUIPMENT SECTION 3 EQUIPMENT Rule 9 Uniforms 9.1 Team Uniform All players of each team shall be dressed uniformly with approved design and color of their helmets, sweaters, short pants, stockings and skates. Altered uniforms of any kind, i.e. Velcro inserts, over-sized jerseys, altered collars, etc., will not be permitted. Any player or goalkeeper not complying with this rule shall not be permitted to participate in the game. For violations, refer to 9.5. Each member Club shall design and wear distinctive and contrasting uniforms for their home and road games, no parts of which shall be interchangeable except the pants. Any concerns regarding a player s uniform (including the goalkeeper) shall be reported by the Referee to the NHL Hockey Operations Department. 9.2 Numbers - Each player listed in the line-up of each team shall wear an individual identifying number at least ten inches (10') high on the back of his sweater. Sweater numbers such as 00, ½ (fractions),.05 (decimals), 101 (three digit) are not permitted. In addition, each player shall wear his surname in full, in block letters three inches (3') high, across the back of his sweater at shoulder height. 9.3 Player s Jersey (see 9.4 for goalkeeper) The maximum jersey size is (see diagram). No inserts or additions are to be added to the standard players 11

23 SECTION 3 - EQUIPMENT jersey as produced by the manufacturer. (Modifications at the manufacturer are not allowed unless approved in advance by the League) No alteration of the neck opening is permitted. Sleeves must extend into the cuff of the glove. Jerseys must be tied down properly at all times. 9.4 Goalkeeper s Jersey The maximum jersey size is (see diagram). No inserts or additions are to be added to the standard goalkeeper-cut jersey as produced by the manufacturer. Modifications at the manufacturer are not allowed unless approved in advance by the League. No tying down of the sweater is allowed at the wrists if it creates a tension across the jersey such that a webbing effect is created in the armpit area. No other tie downs are allowed that create a webbing effect. The length of a jersey is illegal if it covers any area between the goalkeeper s legs. 9.5 Protective Equipment - All protective equipment, except gloves, headgear and goalkeepers leg guards must be worn under the uniform. Should it be brought to the attention of the Referee that a player is wearing, for example, an elbow pad that is not covered by his jersey, he shall instruct the player to cover up the pad and a second violation by the same player would result in a minor penalty being assessed. 12

24 SECTION 3 - EQUIPMENT Whenever it is deemed by the Referee that a player is wearing protective equipment that does not meet with League regulations, he shall instruct the player to change or remove the piece of equipment. If the player refuses to make the necessary change he shall be assessed a minor penalty for delay of game and should he return to the ice without making the necessary change he shall be assessed a misconduct penalty. Should this happen a third time, the player shall be assessed a game misconduct penalty. All player pants must be worn in a uniform fashion by all players. The pants must one consistent color around and throughout the leg of the pant. Pant legs are not to be ripped, cut, or torn in the leg/thigh area. 9.6 Helmets - All players of both teams shall wear a helmet of design, material and construction approved by the League at all times while participating in a game, either on the playing surface or the players or penalty benches. A player may continue to participate in the play without his helmet. However, if he goes to his players bench to be substituted for, he may not return to the ice during play without a helmet (nor may a player exit the penalty bench during play without a helmet). Should he do so, the play shall be stopped once his team has gained control of the puck. If the play is stopped for such an infraction in the attacking zone, the ensuing face-off will take place at the nearest face-off spot in the neutral zone of the non-offending team. If the play is stopped for such an infraction in the defending or neutral zone, the ensuing face-off will take place at the nearest face-off spot to the location of the puck in that zone when the play was stopped. When a goalkeeper has lost his helmet and/or face mask and his team has control of the puck, the play shall be stopped immediately to allow the goalkeeper the opportunity to regain his helmet and/or face mask. When the opposing team has control of the puck, play shall only be stopped if there is no immediate and impending scoring opportunity. This stoppage of play must be made by the Referee. When play is stopped because the goalkeeper has lost his helmet and/or face mask, the ensuing face-off shall take place at one of the defending team s end zone face-off spots. When a goalkeeper deliberately removes his helmet and/or face mask in order to secure a stoppage of play, the Referee shall stop play as outlined above and in this case assess the goalkeeper a minor penalty for delaying the game. If the goalkeeper deliberately removes his helmet and/or face mask when the opposing team is on a breakaway, the Referee shall award a penalty shot to the nonoffending team, which shot shall be taken by the player last in possession of the puck. If the goalkeeper deliberately removes his helmet and/or face mask during the course of a penalty shot or shootout attempt, the Referee shall award a goal to the non-offending team. 9.7 Visors - Beginning with the season, all players who have fewer than 25 games of NHL experience must wear a visor properly 13

25 SECTION 3 - EQUIPMENT affixed to their helmet. Visors are to be affixed to the helmets in such a fashion as to ensure adequate eye protection. 9.8 Dangerous Equipment - The use of pads or protectors made of metal, or of any other material likely to cause injury to an opposing player is prohibited. Referees have the authority to prohibit any equipment they feel may cause injury to any participants in the game. Failure to comply with the Referees instructions shall result in the assessment of a minor penalty for delay of game. A mask or protector of a design approved by the League may be worn by a player who has sustained a facial injury. In the first instance, the injured player shall be entitled to wear any protective device prescribed by the Club doctor. If any opposing Club objects to the device, it may record its objection with the Commissioner. In cases where a stick may have been modified and it is evident that the edges have not been beveled, the Referee shall deem the stick to be dangerous equipment and removed from the game until the edges can be beveled sufficiently. No penalty is to assessed initially unless the player returns to the ice with the unmodified stick, in which case he will be assessed a minor penalty for delay of game. Rule 10 Sticks 10.1 Player s Stick (see 10.2 for goalkeeper) The sticks shall be made of wood or other material approved by the League, and must not have any projections. Adhesive tape of any color may be wrapped around the stick at any place for the purpose of reinforcement or to improve control of the puck. No stick shall exceed sixty-three inches (63') in length from the heel to the end of the shaft nor more than twelve and one-half inches (121/2') from the heel to the end of the blade. Requests for an exception to the length of the shaft (only) may be submitted in writing to and must be approved by the League s Hockey Operations Department prior to any such stick being approved for use. Only players 6 6 tall or more will be considered for exception. Maximum length of a stick granted an exception under this rule is sixty-five inches (65 ). The blade of the stick shall not be more than three inches (3') in width at any point between the heel and ½ in from the mid-point of the tip of the blade, nor less than two inches (2'). All edges of the blade shall be beveled (see 9.8). The curvature of the blade of the stick shall be restricted in such a way that the distance of a perpendicular line measured from a straight line drawn from any point at the heel to the end of the blade to the point of maximum curvature shall not exceed three-quarters of an inch (3/4'). 14

26 SECTION 3 - EQUIPMENT STICK MEASUREMENTS 10.2 Goalkeeper s Stick - In the case of a goalkeeper s stick, there shall be a knob of white tape or some other protective material approved by the League. This knob must not be less than one-half inch (1/2') thick at the top of the shaft. Failure to comply with this provision of the rule will result in the goalkeeper s stick being deemed unfit for play. The goalkeeper s stick must be changed without the application of a minor penalty. The blade of the goalkeeper s stick shall not exceed three and one-half inches (31/2') in width at any point except at the heel, where it must not exceed four and one-half inches (41/2') in width; nor shall the goalkeeper s stick exceed fifteen and one-half inches (151/2') in length from the heel to the end of the blade. There is to be no measurement of any of the dimensions of the goalkeeper s stick during the course of the game. The League s Hockey Operations Department is specifically authorized to make a check of all goalkeepers sticks to ensure the compliance with the rule. It shall report its findings to the Commissioner for his disciplinary action (see 11.9). The widened portion of the goalkeeper s stick extending up the shaft from the blade shall not extend more than twenty-six inches (26') from the heel and shall not exceed three and one-half inches (31/2') in width. GOALKEEPERS STICK MEASUREMENTS 15

27 SECTION 3 - EQUIPMENT 10.3 Broken Stick Player - A broken stick is one which, in the opinion of the Referee, is unfit for normal play. A player without a stick may participate in the game. A player whose stick is broken may participate in the game provided he drops the broken stick. A minor penalty shall be imposed for an infraction of this rule. A player who has lost or broken his stick may receive a replacement stick by having one handed to him from his own players bench; by having one handed to him by a teammate on the ice; or, by picking up his own unbroken stick or that of a teammate s from the ice. A player will be penalized if he throws, tosses, slides or shoots a stick to a teammate on the ice, or if he picks up and plays with an opponent s stick. A player may not participate in the play using a goalkeeper s stick. A minor penalty shall be imposed for an infraction of this rule. A player tendered a stick thrown on the ice from the players or penalty bench will not receive a penalty. However, the person responsible for throwing the stick will receive a bench minor penalty Broken Stick Goalkeeper - A goalkeeper may continue to play with a broken stick until a stoppage of play or until he has one legally handed to him by a teammate. The teammate must hand the stick to him. He cannot throw it or slide it to the goalkeeper (this includes situations where the goalkeeper has lost his stick and a teammate is trying to return it to him). For a violation of this rule, a minor penalty for throwing the stick shall be assessed to the offending player (no penalty to the goalkeeper for receiving the stick). A goalkeeper whose stick is broken or illegal may not go to the players bench for a replacement but must receive his stick from a teammate. A goalkeeper may participate in the play using a skater s stick until such time as he is legally provided with a replacement goalkeeper s stick. For an infraction of this rule, a minor penalty shall be imposed on the goalkeeper Stick Measurement - A request for a stick measurement shall be limited to one request per team during the course of any stoppage in play. When a formal complaint is made by the Captain or Alternate Captain of a team, against the dimensions of any stick of an opponent, that opponent must be on the ice at the time the request is made to the Referee. Once the request is made, and as long as the Officials maintain visual contact with the stick, it can be measured. This means that if the player whose stick is about to be measured steps off the ice onto his players bench, his stick may still be measured provided the request was received prior to him leaving the ice surface and the stick remains in the view of at least one of the onice Officials. The Referee shall take the stick to the penalty bench where the necessary measurement shall be made immediately. Players on both 16

28 SECTION 3 - EQUIPMENT teams shall retire to their respective benches. To measure the curvature of the blade of the stick, the Referee must draw an imaginary line along the outside of the shaft to the bottom of the blade and then along the bottom of the blade - this will determine the location of the heel. Using a League-approved measuring gauge, the Referee shall secure the gauge at the heel of the stick and measure the curvature of the blade from the heel to any point along the toe of the blade. To measure any other dimension of the stick, the Referee shall use a measuring tape. The result shall be reported to the Penalty Timekeeper, who shall record it on the back of the Penalty Record form. The Referee will convey the result of the measurement to Captain or Alternate Captain of the player whose stick was measured. If the stick proves to be illegal, the stick shall remain at the penalty bench until the end of the game. A player whose stick has been measured and it is found not to conform to the provisions of this rule shall be assessed a minor penalty and a fine of two hundred dollars ($200). For a second offense in the same season, the player shall (in addition to the minor penalty) be fined one thousand dollars ($1000). For a third offense in the same season, the player shall (in addition to the minor penalty) be assessed a game misconduct and an automatic one game suspension. For all additional violations in the same season, the automatic suspension to the player shall (in addition to the minor penalty and game misconduct assessed during the game) double for each subsequent violation of this rule (i.e. first suspension - one game, second suspension - two games, third suspension four games etc.) If the complaint is not sustained, a bench minor penalty shall be imposed against the complaining Club in addition to a fine of one hundred dollars ($100). A player who participates in the play, who checks or who intentionally prevents the movement of an opponent, or who intentionally plays the puck while carrying two sticks (including while taking a replacement stick to his goalkeeper) shall incur a minor penalty under this rule but the automatic fine of two hundred dollars ($200) shall not be imposed. If his participation causes a foul resulting in a penalty, the Referee shall report the incident to the Commissioner for disciplinary action. A request for a stick measurement in regular playing time is permitted, including after the scoring of a goal, however, a goal cannot be disallowed as a result of the measurement. A request for a stick measurement following a goal in overtime (including one scored on a penalty shot in overtime) is not permitted. Stick measurements prior to or during the shootout are permitted, subject to the guidelines outlined in Any player who deliberately breaks his stick or who refuses to surrender his stick for measurement when requested to do so by the Referee shall be assessed a minor penalty plus a ten-minute (10) misconduct. In addition, this player or goalkeeper shall be subject to a 17

29 SECTION 3 - EQUIPMENT two hundred dollar ($200) fine Stick Measurement Prior to Penalty Shot A stick measurement request may be made prior to a penalty shot following these guidelines: First Stick If the stick is legal the complaining Club is assessed a bench minor penalty, a player is placed in the penalty box immediately. Regardless as to the result of the penalty shot, the bench minor penalty is assessed and served. If the stick is illegal the player will be assessed a minor penalty. He will be ordered to obtain a new (second) stick prior to the penalty shot. After he takes the shot he will be required to serve his penalty. Second stick The player will be told that the second stick will be measured prior to the penalty shot to verify the legality of the stick. If the second stick is legal, proceed with the penalty shot. If second stick is illegal, disallow the opportunity for the penalty shot and assess one minor penalty for the first illegal stick. If the player refuses to surrender his stick for measurement prior to the penalty shot, the penalty shot shall not be permitted and the player shall be assessed a misconduct penalty Stick Measurement Prior to Shootout Attempt A stick measurement request must be made prior to the Referee blowing his whistle to begin the shootout attempt. If the stick is legal the complaining Club forfeits their next shootout attempt. In addition, the complaining Club s Coach shall be fined one thousand dollars ($1000) and the Club shall be fined five thousand dollars ($5000). Their next shootout attempt would be recorded as no goal. If the stick is illegal, the offending team forfeits that shootout attempt by that player, and the player becomes ineligible to participate in the shootout. In addition, the player is fined one thousand dollars ($1000) and his Club is fined five thousand dollars ($5000). This shootout attempt would be recorded as no goal. Stick measurement violations during the shootout shall not be subject to the fines and suspensions outlined in Rule 11 Goalkeeper s Equipment 11.1 Goalkeeper s Equipment - With the exception of skates and stick, all the equipment worn by the goalkeeper must be constructed solely for the purpose of protecting the head or body, and he must not wear any garment or use any contrivance which would give him undue assistance in keeping goal. The League s Hockey Operations Department is specifically authorized to make a check of each teams equipment (including goalkeepers sticks) to ensure the compliance with the rule. It shall report its findings to the Commissioner for his disciplinary action. 18

30 SECTION 3 - EQUIPMENT 11.2 Leg Guards The leg guards worn by goalkeepers shall not exceed eleven inches (11') in extreme width when on the leg of the player. Each goalkeeper must wear pads that are anatomically proportional and size specific based on the individual physical characteristics of that goalkeeper. The League's Hockey Operations Department will have the complete discretion to determine the maximum height of each goalkeeper's pads based on measurements obtained by the League's Hockey Operations Department, which will include the floor to center of knee and center of knee to pelvis measurements. Each goalkeeper will be given a Limiting Distance Size based on these measurements. The Limiting Distance Size will be the sum of the floor to knee and 45% of the knee to pelvis measurements plus a four inch (4 ) allowance for the height of the skate. The Limiting Distance Size is a vertical measurement from the playing surface and will be measured with the Limiting Distance Gauge when inspected at the clearing house phase and during post game spot checks to ensure compliance. Any pads deemed too large for a goalkeeper will be considered illegal equipment for that goalkeeper, regardless of whether or not they would have fallen within previous equipment maximums. The minimum length of the boot of the pad is to be no less than seven inches (7'). The goal pad must have a defined boot channel with no inserts. The channel must be big enough so that the skate slots into it and is not resting on the pad. No attachments such as plastic puck foils are permitted. Pads can only be ten and one-half inches (101/2') deep. The measurement will be taken from the front face of the pad to the last edge of the inner knee protection. Calf-wing protectors can no longer be attached to the five-hole or the five-hole seam. Calf-wings must be inset one-half inch (1/2') from the inside five-hole, creating a distinct edge, and attached to the back cover. Calf-wing protectors must be one piece and cannot include wedges (removable or non-removable). Calf-wing protectors may be flat for five and one-half inches (51/2') before contouring to the shape of the leg. Calf-wing protectors must contour and cannot be visible to the shooter when strapped to the goalkeeper s leg. Calf-wing protectors may not exceed one inch (1 ) in thickness. Calf-wing protector straps must run through or wrap around so the calf protector follows the contour of the goalkeeper s leg even if the straps are worn loosely. No zippers, Velcro, or Velcro attachments are allowed. The knee strap pad is not to exceed six inches (6') in length by five and one-half inches (51/2') in width. The knee strap pad must be fastened to the inner risers/lifts The inner knee risers are not to exceed seven inches (7 ) in length by five and one-half inches (51/2') in width. The length of seven inches (7 ) is measured from where the inner padding attaches to the leg pad and back to the end of the inner padding. The total measurement of the entire inner knee padding (pad risers) including the outer knee strap pad must not exceed two and one-half inches (21/2') in thickness and will be measured when noncompressed. Knee strap pads and riser/lifts must have a one inch (1 ) radius (rounded) on the top edge. Knee straps must wrap around the knee build-ups and cannot come out behind or through knee build 19

31 SECTION 3 - EQUIPMENT ups. Medial rolls (raised seam ridges) will not be permitted. All knee protection attached to the leg pad must be worn under the thigh guard of the pant Chest and Arm Pads No raised ridges are allowed on the front edges or sides of the chest pad, the inside or outside of the arms, or across the shoulders. Layering at the elbow is permitted to add protection but not to add stopping area. This layering, both across the front and down the sides, to protect the point of the elbow shall not exceed seven inches (7'). Shoulder cap protectors must follow the contour of the shoulder cap without becoming a projection/extension beyond or above the shoulder or shoulder cap. This contoured padding must not be more than one inch (1') in thickness beyond the top ridge of the shoulder and shoulder cap. On each side the shoulder clavicle protectors are not to exceed seven inches (7') in width. Their maximum thickness is to be one inch (1'). This protection is not to extend or project above or beyond the shoulder or shoulder cap nor extend beyond the armpit. No insert is allowed between the shoulder clavicle protector and the chest pad that would elevate the shoulder clavicle protector. If, when the goalkeeper assumes his normal crouch position, the shoulder and/or shoulder cap protection is pushed above the contour of the shoulder, the chest pad will be considered illegal. The chest and arm protector worn by each goalkeeper must be anatomically proportional and size specific based on the individual physical characteristics of that goalkeeper. The League's Hockey Operations Department will have the complete discretion to determine the maximum size for each goalkeeper's chest and arm protector based on measurements obtained by the League's Hockey Operations Department, which will include but not be limited to, measurements for torso and arm length. Any chest and arm protector deemed too large for a goalkeeper will be considered illegal equipment for that goalkeeper, regardless of whether or not it would have fallen within previous equipment maximums Pants No internal or external or cheater padding is permitted on the pant leg or waist beyond that which is required to provide protection (no outside or inside ridges). The maximum width (straight line) of the thigh pad across the front of the leg is ten inches (10'). If the groin and/or hip pads extend beyond the edge of the front thigh pad they are to be included in this ten-inch (10') measurement. This measurement is to be taken while the goalkeeper is in an upright standing position. This measurement is to be made five inches (5') up from the bottom of the pant. All thigh pads must follow the contour of the leg. Square thigh pads are considered illegal. Each goalkeeper must wear pants that are anatomically proportional and size specific based on the individual physical characteristics of that goalkeeper. The League's Hockey Operations 20

32 SECTION 3 - EQUIPMENT Department will have the complete discretion to determine the maximum size of each goalkeeper's pants based on measurements obtained by the League's Hockey Operations Department, which will include but not be limited to, measurements for waist circumference and length of pant above and below waist line. In determining pants sizes, whether or not a goalkeeper wears his chest and arm pads inside or outside of his pants will also be a consideration. Any pants deemed too large for a goalkeeper will be considered illegal equipment for that goalkeeper, regardless of whether or not they would have fallen within previous equipment maximums Knee Pads All knee protection must be strapped and fit under the thigh pad of the pant leg and not exceed a contoured nine inches (9 ), with no flat surfaces and must not be permanently attached or fixed to the pants. Layering at the knee is permitted to add protection but not to add stopping area. Any layering to protect the knee, whether across the front or along the sides, shall not exceed nine inches (9 ). This measurement is to be taken while the goalkeeper is in an upright standing position. In the event a goalkeeper is required to wear a medical appliance to support the knee, the measurement will be taken without the goalkeeper wearing the medical appliance Catching Glove A maximum perimeter of forty-five inches (45') is permitted. The perimeter of the glove is the distance around the glove (see measurement procedures below). The wrist cuff must be four inches (4') in width. The cuff of the glove is considered to be the portion of the glove protecting the wrist from the point where the thumb joint meets the wrist. Any protection joining/enhancing the cuff to the glove will be considered part of the glove rather than the cuff. The wrist cuff is to be a maximum of eight inches (8') in length (this includes the bindings). All measurements follow the contour of the cuff. The distance from the heel of the glove along the pocket and following the contour of the inside of the trap of the glove to the top of the T trap must not exceed eighteen inches (18'). The heel is considered to be the point at which the straight vertical line from the cuff meets the glove (see diagram at right). Measuring Procedures for Goalkeepers Catching Glove Suggested Equipment - binder clip, pins and a 5/8' fiberglass cloth measuring tape that measures eighth of an inch. Procedure: 21

33 SECTION 3 - EQUIPMENT 1) At the starting point of the measurement, anchor the tape with a pin or binder clip. 2) Ensure that the midpoint line of the measuring tape follows the outside top ridge of the edge/binding. 3) If at the junction of the cuff and catch portions of the glove there is a jagged point, the measurement tape will follow the imaginary perpendicular line to the glove ridge above. (A jagged joint anywhere else on the glove will not be allowed this straight line privilege, i.e. where the trap joins the main glove) Blocking Glove Protective padding attached to the back or forming part of the goalkeeper's blocking glove shall not exceed eight inches (8') in width nor more than fifteen inches (15') in length at any point (this includes the bindings). All measurements follow the contour of the back of the glove. The blocking glove must be rectangular in shape. The flap protecting the thumb and wrist must be fastened to the blocker and must follow the contour of the thumb and wrist. This thumb protection must not exceed seven inches (7') in extreme length when measured from the top of the blocking surface. Raised ridges are not to be added to any portion of the blocking glove. All goalkeepers must use one of each a blocking glove and catching glove, meeting League-approved sizing specifications Masks Protective masks of a design approved by the League must be worn by goalkeepers. Protective masks deemed to be worn only to increase stopping area will be considered illegal League Inspections - These inspections can take place at any time, before, during, or after any game. A member of the League s Hockey Operations, Officiating and/or Security departments may obtain equipment from any or all of the four participating goalkeepers. This equipment may be removed to a secure location for measuring. Any violation of this rule will result in an automatic two (2) game suspension to the offending goalkeeper. Should both goalkeepers on a Club have illegal equipment, both will be suspended in sequence. The goalkeeper who played the day/night of the measurement will be suspended for the next two (2) games played by his team, and the backup goalkeeper will be suspended for the subsequent two (2) games. 22
