Roll on/off subs\n3. Home team to supply ref and match balls (size fou r)\n4. No off-sides\n5. All free kicks are direct\n6. Shin pads must be wo rn\n7. Win=3pts\, draw=2pts and loss=1pt\n\nIf teams finish with the same points at any stage\, overall goal difference and then goals scored will b e used to separate them. If these are identical\, the aggregate score in t he matches between the two teams\n\nThe main differences from the traditio nal district football league include the below:\n\n No separate small and large school groups. This would be the long term aim but due to sig n up this has not been possible.\n There will not be a halfway point w here groups are rearranged inline with autumn term results.\n This halfwa y point usually puts pressure on teachers to complete fixtures within the autumn term and then also results in some teams not progressing to an addi tional spring term group phase stage. This would go against the nature of this Girls league which aims to provide as much extra playing time as is possible.\n KEY RULE If the score line margin becomes 5 plus goals t o one respective team. The team at this deficit will be able to add two e xtra players to the field of play thus creating a 10 vs 8 in their favour. Once the score line is reduced back to a 2 goal margin the team who were able to add the two extra players will then need to immediately reduce the ir on field playing team back to 8 players at that moment in time thus re- establishing an 8v8 match.\n This will ensure the key outcome of this le ague is more readily achieved with girls enjoying the experience and c ontinuing their participation and love for the game.\n\nFormat:\n\n Three groups of 5 teams.\n Play each team in your group once.\n Please be fle xible in trying to play your fixtures as evenly as possible whereby playin g fixtures at home and away.\n Please play all your group phase fixtures by Easter Half term.  \n This will then allow the top teams from groups A\, B\, C to get themselves organised to play in the finals event due to h appen soon after the Easter break.\n The no heading rule will be implemen ted. To ensure player welfare and mitigate against potential health ris ks linked to heading the ball. A number of local youth leagues have introd uced this rule also.\n\n \;\n\nWhat is a deliberate header?\n\nA delib erate header / heading will usually involve a player moving their head and / or body:\n\n Towards the ball and / or\n Into the path of the ball Wh en judging if a header is ‘deliberate’\, account should be taken of wh ether the player had the time / opportunity to avoid the ball.\n\nThis wil l be influenced by:\n\n The speed of the ball\n The distance between the ball and the player when it is played by another player or rebounds from the goalpost or crossbar etc.\n\n \;\n\nLaw Changes \n\nDeliberately heading the ball is an offence punishable by an indirect free-kick. The in direct free-kick is taken at the point where the ball was deliberately hea ded.\n\n Where a player of the defending team deliberately heads the ball in their own penalty area\, the indirect free-kick is taken from the pena lty mark\n\nDeliberately heading the ball is not a cautionable (yellow car d) or sending off (red card) offence\, unless it:\n\n Stops or interferes with a promising attack (yellow card) • Denies the opposing team a goal or obvious goal-scoring opportunity (red card)\n Occurs often enough to be considered ‘persistent misconduct’ (yellow card)\n ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.move-more.org/wp-content/uploads/202 1/09/Move-More-Girls-Football.jpg CATEGORIES:Football,Primary School END:VEVENT BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:Europe/London X-LIC-LOCATION:Europe/London BEGIN:DAYLIGHT DTSTART:20240331T020000 TZOFFSETFROM:+0000 TZOFFSETTO:+0100 TZNAME:BST END:DAYLIGHT BEGIN:STANDARD DTSTART:20241027T010000 TZOFFSETFROM:+0100 TZOFFSETTO:+0000 TZNAME:GMT END:STANDARD BEGIN:DAYLIGHT DTSTART:20250330T020000 TZOFFSETFROM:+0000 TZOFFSETTO:+0100 TZNAME:BST END:DAYLIGHT END:VTIMEZONE END:VCALENDAR
