Reminders

Reminders:

Please be mindful of our referees.  We only have a center referee, so let's practice the "honor system" when it comes to throw-ins, goal kicks, corner kicks, and fouls.  They are there for our safety and liability reasons.  "Bad calls" or "no calls" is no reason to get upset and challenge the referee.  

This is a "recreational" co-ed league.  Keep your play under control so no one gets injured.  We have players of all ages on the field, and not everyone is on the same skill level.

The Adult League Coordinators reserve the right to dismiss any player from the field for non-compliance of the above rules.
