Playing time will consist of two (2) twenty-two (22) minute running halves with a three (3) minute halftime. 4. Teams will have zero (0) timeouts 5. Tie Games at the end of regulation will immediately go into a four (4) minute sudden death overtime beginning with a face-off unless either team ends game with possession in an extra man situation, in which case they will receive the ball to start OT. If the game remains tied after the overtime period, a 1v1 Braveheart will immediately follow until a winner is determined. *Alternate Game Length and Time Format 1. In the event of schedule delays caused by weather, which may include lightning, heavy rain, or extreme heat, the tournament will go to an alternate schedule and shorten game length in the following options: a. Fifty (50) minute game blocks: two (2) twenty (20) minute running halves with a three (3) minute halftime. For overtime: four (4) minute sudden death period, then Braveheart. b. Forty (40) minute game blocks: two (2) sixteen (16) minute halves with a two (2) minute halftime. For overtime: directly to Braveheart. c.

Man-up on Time served penalties. All penalties will be running time. The penalty clock will begin when the official blows the whistle to restart play. Penalty time will be kept on the field by the officials. 2. Substitutions will be on the fly only, except on a time serving penalty. For time serving penalties, teams will be allowed a quick substitution to get EMO/EMD on the field. 3. There will be no stick checks unless requested by the opposing coach. If a requested stick is found to be illegal, a sixty (60) second non-releasable penalty will be assessed. If the stick is found to be legal, the challenging team will be assessed a 30-second releasable penalty. Coaches may request one (1) stick check per game. No stick checks are permitted in the last ten minutes of regulation or overtime. Sticks may meet either NCAA or NFHS standards. 4. Braveheart Rules: For a Braveheart, each team will send two (2) players, one of whom HAS to be a goalie. One player from each team must always remain on the defensive half of the field. 5. Body checking will be called tightly in the interest of player safety. A one to three minute nonreleasable penalty will be called for any body check that is to the head and neck area, on a defenseless player, a blindside hit, or deemed excessive. These penalties are unnecessary roughness and not in the spirit of summer tournament play. *No big body hits are allowed in the 2022 Divisions and younger. 7
