their decision is final.
• A referee CANNOT authorise a warning or ban- he must
approach the organisers with his complaint.

instant ban(no refund given to player). This is to the
referees'/organisers' discretion.

refunded if they choose pull out their team at any point
during the league.
• Numbers- if a team for any reason does not have at
least 5 players from their team for their matches, they
have two choices. Either they play with the number of
players they have available or their game is forfeited
and they are given a 3-0 loss. Teams MUST have a minimum
of 3 players to play at all. If they have fewer than
3 players, the game will be forfeited.
• TEAMS DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO FOREFIT any matches.
Any forfeits are as stated in the above conditions or
up to the organisers. Any team wishing to take the rules
into their own hands will be cautioned by THE WHOLE
TEAM RECIEVING ONE YELLOW CARD.
• Teams are NOT allowed to borrow players from other
teams within the league.
• Lateness- teams are given a MAXIMUM time of 5 minutes
after the start of their game to turn up. If 5 minutes
are exceeded, with the team not available to play, the
game will be forfeited with a 3-0 victory to the opposing
team.
• When the lights are out; all games are over, regardless
of whether the game has finished at full time or not.

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.
