Richmond Oval-Tuesday Individual Soccer League Rules
Format: Play is 5-on-5 plus a goalie.
Sliding/Slide Tackling: Absolutely NO sliding or slide tackling is permitted in Urban Rec soccer. At no time may a player leave their feet to play or challenge for a ball. Goalies are permitted to dive headfirst in an attempt to make a save, but not to tackle an opponent.
The on-site League Coordinator (LC) will have a list of all the participants registered for the league, and only those who are registered for this league are eligible to play (no subs). Participants MUST also bring their revisable jersey in order to participate.
This league is coed in nature, and all members are eligible to register. That said, there will be no gender requirements for making up the teams each week.
Have fun and play with good sportsmanship! We expect all of our Urban Rec participants to have a “Fun First” attitude about this unique sporting opportunity. There is an emphasis on the players knowing the rules and managing their own actions on the court. Sportsmanship, fun and being social are number one at Urban Rec and we hope to see that exhibited by all of our participants!
