Volunteers Needed
Salam,
Inshallah you've all enjoyed the football this season....we've tried our best!!
As most of you know, this league is setup and run purely by volunteers from our youth. We need help from normal people like you to keep this league running and to improve it.
If anyone is interested in helping out then please contact us at football@ius.org.uk or speak to one of the organisers.
All help would be greatly appreciated from overall organisation, website maintenance, graphics, refereeing and general helping out on the day.
If we can get enough new volunteers, this may create the potential to expand the league so do please get in contact!

May Allah reward you for your deeds.

Thank you
Wasalam

ATTENTION: DISCIPLINARY ACTIONS TAKEN
Due to some recent incidents of un-islamic conduct, the disciplinary committee have taken the following actions:

-One player has been FULLY BANNED for the remainder of the football league. This is due to completely unacceptable behaviour ON AND OFF the pitch.
-Two players have received yellow cards for un-islamic conduct. Again this applies to both on and off the pitch

We all have an individual responsibility to make sure that we behave in the correct manner. This is an islamic football league. We are carrying the banner of islam when we're at that sports centre and have a duty to live up to it. Our actions and behaviour must reflect the fact that we are muslims and so violent and angry comments including swearing, from individuals is totally unacceptable and will be dealt with strictly.

Inshallah this will not be the case.

24/11/06: IMPORTANT - GENERAL CONDUCT

In recent weeks, the level and atmosphere of play has become somewhat rougher and less freindly. This is totally unacceptable and un-Islamic. This league is meant to be an opportunity to make new friends, play football and have fun.
It is totally unacceptable to heckle other players/teams. This is un-islamic and any of this type of misconduct will be subject to disciplinary action.

Please remember why we are here. We all want to win, but Islamic conduct and good sportsmanship must be our top priority. Please contribute to the friendly atmosphere that its meant to be!!!


Updated site and Assistant Refs
-Assistant refs: Due to controversy on the decisions of refs at times, some games will have an assistant ref who can clarify situations where needed. There will not always be one but where possible, inshallah there will.
-Site Updates!: If you havn't already seen, there have been some recent updates to the site. The media section is now online (photos, videos, graphics- all continuously updated). Also, why not write some lyrics or make some graphics for your team?

Player/Goalie of the Month
4 weeks of football have now passed so its time to vote for your player and goalie of the month. To vote, please email footall@ius.org.uk with subject title "player of the month", leaving your name, your team and the name of one player and one goalie who you want to vote for. YOU CANNOT VOTE FOR ANYONE ON YOUR OWN TEAM. The deadline for voting is Thursday 30th November. Any votes after this date will not be counted. The winner will be displayed on the site.

 

18/10/06: IMPORTANT - IUS MEMBERSHIP CHECKS

Salam,
I'm sure your all waiting and raring this friday and inshallah you'll have a good time. As you already know, we are being very strict about ius memberships this year. You have to be a member to play. Each week, we will be checking to see if players are members before you can enter the sports center. YOU WILL NOT BE ALLOWED INTO THE CENTRE IF YOU ARE NOT A MEMBER!! We have a list of all players registered to the league and their membership status which we will be checking upon entry. If you are not a member, we will have membership forms at hand so make sure you have your bank details on hand (account name, sort code, account number and branch). Inshallah we can get this sorted asap so we can all enjoy the football!!

Thankyou

18/10/06: IMPORTANT - NEW RULES

Salam.
There have been a few changes to the rules that you may be used to from last season. Please refer to the rules section for a full list. Some of the changes are:
- New Sin Bin Rule: any player who is given a yellow card must sit out for 2mins, reducing the team to 4 players. The player may then return to the game after 2mins but will have a yellow card on his record.The sin binned player cannot be substituted while he is in the sin bin.
- Disciplinary Committee: Any players who do not keep to these rules will be referred to the disciplinary committee who will decide on the fate of that player in the league. Ignorance of the rules will not be tolerated.

Thankyou
