Coaches and Families,
Please review these important elements of our U9/U10 game days and programming. Parents of U9 families and newer U10 families may not understand why we play with modified rules:
Game Length : 60 minutes : 2x30 minutes
1. There is NO intentional heading allowed
2. We DO NOT post scores for these age groups
3. The keeper cannot dropkick or punt the ball.
4. The Midfield line will serve as the "BuildOut'' Line for all NECSL 7v7 games.
6. Maximum Goal Sizes: Height: 6.5 Feet | Width: 18.5 Feet
This information has been shared with our referee assignor. We recommend and encourage all U9/U10 coaches to engage in a pregame conversation to discuss the modified rules prior to each game
Please take a few minutes to watch this US Soccer video for the hows and whys we play by these rules for the LONG term development of our players. https://video.ussdcc.com/users/227808/48869/480p/video.mp4
Thank you.
