Format:

Eight team split round robin with a final on a separate day

Arrival Time:

9:15 am

Match Format:

Games in the Round Robins will consist of two 15-minute halves. Half-time will be of 5 minutes- duration and there will be no time-on, unless indicated by the umpire for exceptional circumstances (i.e. injury or deliberate time-wasting).

The final will be four 20 minute quarters for all age groups with no time-on (except for that mentioned in 3 above), with a 10 minute break at half-time and five minutes at the other breaks. 

Winner is determined by matches won, head to head and then percentage. In the event of a draw in the final, 5 minutes of extra time will be played in each direction. This will continue until a result is obtained.

Points will be awarded accordingly in round robins.

                      Win: 2 points        Draw: 1 point   Loss: 0 points

If two teams cannot be separated on points after the Round-Robin matches, then the winner of the match between these teams will assume the higher position.  If the result of this match was a draw of if three teams are equal then percentage will be used. When doing these calculations involving a three way tie, the convener should only include the results of the 3 teams tied NOT the results from the games with the fourth team. Please note when doing calculations in a two way tie ALL teams’ results are to be used!

There will be a maximum of 10 minutes between Round Robin games. Supervising teachers must ensure that their teams are present and ready to take the field for a prompt start to all matches.

Competing schools are reminded of the recommended staff/student ratio namely, 1:20,  i.e. Two adult officials are required.

Each team will only be permitted to have one runner on the field. The runner must wear a distinguishing vest.

Teams are restricted to a maximum of 30 players on the day for round robins and 22 players otherwise for boys and 25 for girls.  Four (4) interchange players are permitted for any boys match and seven (7) interchange for any girls match.
