Please review a few rules that have been updated for the upcoming 2022-2023 indoor season:
Players may permit to other leagues if they are registered with SAS. Some exceptions apply. See Permitting rules for full details.
Permits are unlimited but there is a maximum of 5 to any one team; 10 for goal keepers.
We introduced another league: Competitive for Men/Women, Masters Men/Women, Coed, and Coed Masters. Players may register in Competitive AND Recreational. Some exceptions apply. See Team Alignment & League Division rules for full details.
Competitive Masters Men/Women can have 20% of their roster as players 2 years below the age minimum. Again, see Team Alignment & League Division rules for full details or visit the Competitive League page.
Team Fees can be paid in three instalments instead of two. Of course, you can still pay it before the deadline!
*REMINDER ABOUT OURBOARDING RULE - TO BE STRICTLY ENFORCED*
Boarding is identified when a player(s) makes contact with the boards as a result of the actions of the opposing player(s). Even the slightest contact will result in a call.
All Boarding incidents are considered fouls and will result in a direct free kick.
Any Boarding incident that is deemed to be reckless will be cautioned.
A player who uses excessive force in a boarding incident will be issued a red card.
We want to keep our players safe and the referees are instructed to call this very tightly. Please respect their calls and your opponents.
*REMINDER OF PREVIOUS RULE CHANGES*
We no longer accept payment via cheque. Our payment options include credit card online through RAMP, e-transfers and cash.
We will NOT reintroduce debit and credit to the office with the multiple other ways to make payment.
Team Personnel (Coach/Staff) must register as such. You cannot be on the bench unless you are registered as Team Personnel or a player on that team.
If you are already a player on the team, you do not have to register as Team Personnel. However, if you are a player on one team and coach another, you must register as a Team Personnel for the other team.
Team Personnel can receive cards as per IFAB/FIFA rules. The teams will not play short if the Team Personnel receive a card (in all leagues: outdoor, indoor turf or indoor boarded).
Team Personnel will need to supply Photo ID to be on the bench.
Teams that have their games overturned for ineligible players or wrong doing, will also have their goal stats removed. In contrast, the non-offending team will still keep their goal statistics.
Offsides will not be called in the turf leagues.
7. The Schedule A(Suspensions Schedule) has been updated.
