2. Age qualifying date for all groups is 31 August 2008 - all age groups as per season 2007-2008.
3. FA Mini Soccer rules will apply.
4. Only 6 players from each team are allowed on the pitch at once (7 for Under 9's).
5. The Referee shall be the sole arbiter in all matters relating to the field of play and his/her decision will be FINAL. The Referee is empowered to disqualify any team not ready to play on the stated pitch at the stated time.
6. Teams should bring two contrasting sets of shirts to allow for a colour clash, when the first named team shall change.
7. Teams in each group shall play one match, of ten minutes one way, against all other teams in the same group. Three points will be awarded for a win, two points for a score draw, and one point for a no score draw. If more than one team share the highest number of points after playing all their matches, a winner will be decided by the first of the following to produce a difference:
(a) Goal difference (b) Highest number of goals scored (c) The result of the game between the two teams concerned (d) A penalty competition
8. In the event that one or more of the teams scratch either on the day of the event, or beforehand, the following action will be taken to determine the winners and runners up of the group(s) affected:
Groups shall be amalgamated into new groups of four where possible, when normal rules apply, or rescheduled into groups of three teams or five teams.
9. All matches up to and including the semi-finals shall be ten minutes one way, with the final being fifteen minutes one way.
10. Group winners and runners up will play a quarter, semi-final and final on a knock out basis. If circumstances arise which bring rule 8 into force, then the organiser shall decide how the qualification will be determined from the rescheduled group on the day. In the event of a draw, extra time of two minutes each way will be played in the quarter final, and three minutes each way in the semi-final and final. If teams are still level after extra time then a penalty competition will decide the winners. Only players who finished the match will take part in the penalty competition. A penalty competition will involve each team taking three penalties each by three different players. After, a ‘sudden death' rule will apply with the different players taking the penalties until six have been taken. If there is still no winner after six penalties each then the ‘sudden death' continues, with the six players taking a second penalty if necessary.
