The U10 division is semi-competitive where scores and league standings MAY be kept based on earned points. Division (or tournament) winners and runner-ups will be awarded trophies.
Running up of scores is forbidden. Once the goal differential in the game has reached 4 goals (e.g., 4-0, 5-1, etc.), additional goals scored by the leading team will NOT be added to score. If the trailing team subsequently scores goals, then any goals scored by the leading team after the goal differential is less than 4 will be counted up to the point where the differential reaches 4 again.
Earned league points may determine league standings, if being used. At this time, we are not. Game winners may be awarded 3 league points. In the event of a tie both teams may be awarded 1 point each. Overtime is not played for league games. Losers receive 0 points. A first or second place tie in league points at the end of the season will follow the Optimist Soccer League Standing Tie-breaker policy.
All current IYSA and Club rules are to be followed for game play.
Indirect and direct kicks are used in the U10 division.
All players must be played a minimum of 1/2 of the game.
U10 will use a size 4 soccer ball.
Each game will consist of two 25 minute halves.
The U10 division will play 7v7. If one team cannot field 7 players, the opposing team will match down. No team may participate in a game with less than 5 players. If one team cannot field 5 players within 10 minutes after scheduled game start time it will forfeit the game. Any forfeited game will not be rescheduled. The score of a forfeited game will be 1 – 0. If neither team can field at least 5 players, both teams will forfeit and no score or seasonal points will be awarded to either.
Teams are to utilize a separate sideline from fans and family as a bench area.
