Rules of Competition

11v11

In addition to the attached rules, please follow the time structure specific to TSA. 

  • The clock starts when the ball is kicked and moved. 

  • Each half shall have three 15-minute periods with two 3-minute water breaks and the game shall have a 5-minute halftime break. The clock does not run during our water break resulting in time added at the end. The three periods should be relatively even in length. If the game is shortened (due to weather/field availability/etc.) the water breaks should continue to divide the half into 3 even periods (For example, 30-minute halves would allow for 10 minutes of play)

    • Rather than a 15-minute half, per LotG, our half is five minutes to account for two 3-minute water breaks each half. (17 minutes for half & water, consistent with traditional games with 45 minute halves in IFAB LotG).

  • If you’ve made a clear effort to get players to return to the field, time may resume after the 3-minute water break before the ball is in play. 

  • Time allowance for time lost is made at the end of each half or 15-minute period.  

  • Player substitution is only permitted during water breaks and halftime, with an exception for the following instances: injured and cautioned players shall be substituted any time play is stopped by the referee. 

​​

Note: Disciplinary Action: Any player who is cautioned (yellow card) will be suspended from play for the rest of the period. The player may return to play after the next water break or halftime.
