11 US Youth Soccer Small-Sided Mandates Age Group Format Maximum Roster U6 and U7 4v4 No Keeper 8 U8 U9 and U10 U11 and U12 5v5 with Keeper* *HSA Modification 7v7 Direct kicks and Offside (U10) 9v9 Penalty Kicks and slide tackles

12 NO Heading U6-U11! The days of kids 10 years old or younger heading the ball in a soccer game or practice are over. In resolving a class-action lawsuit regarding the large number of concussions in the sport, the U.S. Soccer Federation has issued new guidelines either banning or limiting players heading the ball depending on their age. Children 10 years or under will no longer be allowed to head the ball in practice or games, while players ages 11 to 13 will only be allowed to do it on a limited basis

13 Build Out line Rule U8-U11 The build out line is used to promote playing the ball out of the back in an unpressured setting. When the goal keeper has the ball, either during play or from a goal kick or free kick, the opposing team should move behind the build out line Goal kicks: The opposition can enter the build out area as soon as the ball leaves the penalty area. Restarts from within the penalty area: The opposition can enter the build out area as soon as the ball leaves the penalty area. GK in possession with their hands: The opposition can enter the build out area as soon as the goalkeeper puts the ball into play

14 2017 Season Expectations Team Conduct -- Coaches, Players, and Spectators Strict adherence to WSSC and WYS Codes of Conduct Model poise, integrity, and good sportsmanship (players and sidelines will follow your lead) The coach is responsible for the conduct of the entire team and their supporters-- Be positive!

27 Sudden Cardiac Awareness Act Information on Compliance with Senate Bill "Sudden Cardiac Arrest Awareness Act The safety of our players is paramount to Washington Youth Soccer. Sudden cardiac arrest is the leading cause of death for youth athletes, with as many as 1 in 250 youth athletes having a heart disorder that may increase the risk of sudden cardiac arrest. On July 24, 2015, a new State of Washington law regarding sudden cardiac arrest awareness will go into effect. SB 5083 referred to as the Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) Awareness Act was passed by the Legislature and signed by the Governor with the intent of making youth athletes, their families, and coaches aware of sudden cardiac arrest.

28 SCA Signs and Symptoms Usually, the first sign of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) is loss of consciousness (fainting). At the same time, no heartbeat (or pulse) can be felt. Some people may have a racing heartbeat or feel dizzy or lightheaded just before they faint. Within an hour before SCA, some people have chest pain, shortness of breath, nausea (feeling sick to the stomach), or vomiting.

29 Required Concussion Education and Action Plan When in doubt, sit them out! Notify parents and HSA Board Allow the athlete to return to play ONLY with permission from a health care professional with experience in evaluating for concussion. A repeat concussion that occurs before the brain recovers from the first can slow recovery or increase the likelihood of having long-term problems. Prevent common long-term problems and the rare second impact syndrome by delaying the athlete's return to the activity until the player receives appropriate medical evaluation and approval for return to play.
