Indoor League Rules

 

Indoor Game Rules

  1. The indoor game should help develop skills and is therefore, for the most part, a minimal contact sport.  No slide tackling will be allowed.  In the interest of safety, players must wear shinguards and appropriate indoor footwear at all times.
  2. To keep the game flowing all walls are part of the playing area.
  3. The goalkeepers can not leave the penalty area.   If the keeper leaves the penalty area an indirect kick will be awarded from where the keeper stepped out of the penalty area.
  4. When the keeper releases the ball it must bounce before it reaches the half-court line.  Failure to do so will result in an indirect free kick from the half-court line.
  5. The keeper can not punt the ball.
  6. All players are allowed in the penalty area, but only the keepers may use their hands.
  7. Indirects will be awarded if the ball hits the ceiling structure, goes out of play, obstruction, etc..
  8. Handballs or fouls will result in a direct free kick.
  9. Substitutions can be made by both teams at any time.
  10. Each team will field 6 players on the court plus one goalkeeper.
