SPECIAL NOTE ON SHOOTOUT ARENA!
No Ties
If any match throughout the tournament ends regulation time in a tie, both teams will immediately move to the SHOOT OUT ARENA (located between field 3 and 5)
-Your teams will enter through the arches with the smoke, music and sheer adrenaline going!

-Referee will do coin toss to see who kicks 1st or 2nd
-Standard best of 5 format to conduct the kicks from the mark (a sudden death will continue if needed after 5 rounds of shooters)
-Everyone (7/9/11 players) available will shoot before the kickers can take another shot (if needed)
-Whichever team who wins the shootout will be awarded the 2 points for the shootout WIN!
-The loser of the shootout will be awarded 1 point
Points Calculation
Points will be calculated to determine which teams advance to semifinals or finals or, in some brackets, the seeding for the next round of play or, in “round robin” brackets, first and second place.
3 points for each win
2 points for a shootout win
1 points for a shoutout loss
0 points for each loss
We ask that teams move to the area as soon as possible. We understand that it will take a few minutes, we have allotted extra time to conduct the shootout, it is understood that teams move to the ARENA as quickly as possible!!
