2019 Season Expectations • Team Conduct -- Coaches, Players, and Spectators Strict adherence to HSC and WYS Codes of Conduct! • The coach is responsible for the conduct of the entire team and their supporters -- Be positive! Be a role model! • Model poise, integrity, and good sportsmanship! (Players and Sidelines will follow your lead) • 50% playing time for EVERY player in good standing (per HSC Player Agreement) regardless of level of competition
2 or more RMA-Cleared Adults for each Team • Register with HSC through Stack Sports. • Apply for background check (RMA) through Affinity. ‘Clear’ status is good for one year. • Online courses and certification for Safe. Sport, Concussion Awareness and Sudden Cardiac Arrest are required prior to RMA approval. • We can’t give access to Team Connect to coaches if their RMA is expired. * On February 14 th, 2018, the Protecting Young Victims from Sexual Abuse and Safe Sport Authorization Act of 2017 was enacted by Congress and became federal law. The new legislation is a response to sexual abuse revealed in and around USA Gymnastics — but the impact of the legislation reaches far beyond Olympic-level sport. The Act creates a new ‘standard of care’ for all organizations providing youth sport programming: youth sport ministries, school leagues and athletics, camps, country club leagues, and more. In short, the new Act requires Prevention Training and Prevention Policies.

Build Out Line (U 08 – U 11)
Build Out Line (U 08 – U 11) • The build out line promotes playing the ball out of the back in a less pressured setting • When the goalkeeper has the ball in his or her hands during play from the opponent, the opposing team must move behind the build out line until the ball is put into play • Once the opposing team is behind the build out line, the goalkeeper can pass, throw or roll the ball into play (punts and drop kicks are not allowed) • After the ball is put into play by the goalkeeper, the opposing team can cross the build out line and play resumes as normal • The opposing team must also move behind the build out line prior to a goal kick and may only cross the build out line once the ball has been put in play • If a goalkeeper punts or drop kicks the ball, an indirect free kick should be awarded to the opposing team from the spot of the offense
Build Out Line (U 08 – U 11) • If the punt or drop kick occurs within the goal area, the indirect free kick should be taken on the goal area line parallel to the goal line at the nearest point to where the infringement occurred • The build out line will also be used to denote where offside offenses can be called • Players cannot be penalized for an offside offense between the halfway line and the build out line • Players can be penalized for an offside offense between the build out line and goal line • Ideally, the goalkeeper will wait to put the ball into play once all opponents are past the build out line • However, the goalkeeper can put the ball into play sooner, but he or she does so accepting the position of the opponents and the consequences of how play resumes
Build Out Line (U 08 – U 11) Practical Applications • To support the intent of the development rule, coaches and referees should be mindful of any intentional delays being caused by opponents not retreating in a timely manner or encroaching over the build out line prior to the ball being put into play • Coaches are responsible for addressing these types of issues with their players • Referees can manage the situation with misconduct if deemed appropriate • Referees should be flexible when enforcing the 6 second rule and counting the time of possession should only begin when all opponents have moved behind the build out line
Rule adjustments (3 -goal rule) — please add a player if your team falls behind by 3 goals. If you are ahead by 3 goals, please add conditions (such as shooting with your weak foot, passing 3 times before shooting, add a player, etc).

Game Scheduling Game Schedules • Game Scheduling for SSUL is very different than HSA league • SSUL forms league brackets (divisions) based on age groups, number of teams, and play level • SSUL scheduler then creates match-ups and dates for games Fall 2019 Schedule and Standings (available late August) • Club game scheduler will then allocate time and location for all home games for your team. • Coaches and team managers will be expected to contact their opponents to share this information and to get away game information from them. • Time and location of games will be updated in Affinity once determinations are made. • Rescheduling will need to be coordinated with opposing team and club game scheduler. If you cancel or reschedule your game for any reason, please contact us so we can let referees know
Season and Game Day Preparation Player Cards Everyone on your roster should have a player card (including coaches) Player cards are required to participate in SSUL games Players cards from previous seasons cannot be re-used Please let us know what player cards you need for your team as soon as possible. • Bring Player cards to every game • • Game Day Rosters • Please review your Affinity roster for accuracy and let us know as soon as possible of any discrepancies. • Print game day roster prior to each game and bring with you to give to the referee • Game day rosters can only be printed 3 days prior to game date and includes opposing roster as well.
Season and Game Day Responsibilities Score and Game Reporting • After each game, access Affinity to enter game score and any disciplinary action (red or yellow cards) that occurred during the game for both teams. • If you intend to protest your game for any reason, please note that in Affinity and notify our board, info. highlinesc@gmail. com. Sportsmanship • Please treat players, coaches, and referees as you would want to be treated yourself. • When leading by 3 or more goals, keep scores down and challenge your players in other ways. • Sideline behavior is your responsibility. All comments from the sidelines must be positive and supportive of the players, coaches, and officials. Remind player families that their responsibility is to enjoy watching their child play. If you require support in this effort, we are happy to help.

2019/20 Laws of the Game – Changes and clarifications Changes • Yellow and red cards for misconduct by team officials • A player being substituted leaving the field of play at the nearest point on the boundary line • At a goal kick and a free kick for the defending team in their own penalty area Team Officials If any coach, assistant coach, athletic trainer or representative of the team on the sidelines is found to be guilty of misconduct but the referee cannot distinguish who committed the infraction, the highest-ranking team official will receive the Yellow/Red Card. Substitutes Anyone who is being substituted needs to leave at the closest point of the touchline/goal line. If the halfway point is the closest point, please go off there. If you are injured or the safest point to exit the field is not the nearest, then the referee will indicate so and you can leave at the halfway point. This change is trying to eliminate the practice of wasting time by substituting a player who is on the opposite side of the field. Goal kick In the past, the team taking the goal kick could not touch the ball until it had left the penalty area. Now, a player from the team in possession may reside in or enter the penalty area and touch the ball as soon as it is in play. For the ball to considered be in play it must have been kicked and clearly moved. This change is meant to speed up the play of the game.
Uniforms • Uniforms are not provided by HSC for teams playing in SSUL and NPSL soccer seasons. • We recommend using Pro. Time for any uniform needs. Home Fields • U-12 (9 v 9) @ Moshier South • U 13 -U 18 (11 v 11) @ Mount Rainier HS Highline Stadium Valley Ridge

This change is trying to eliminate the practice of wasting time by substituting a player who is on the opposite side of the field.
2019/20 Laws of the Game – Changes and clarifications Goal kick In the past, the team taking the goal kick could not touch the ball until it had left the penalty area. Now, a player from the team in possession may reside in or enter the penalty area and touch the ball as soon as it is in play. For the ball to considered be in play it must have been kicked and clearly moved. This change is meant to speed up the play of the game. Does this change affect the buildout line? No, the spirit of the build-out line is still in effect in that players on the team not in possession must move behind the buildout line until the ball is considered in play. The ball is considered in play when it has been kicked and has clearly moved. Players for the team in possession of the goal kick may choose to position themselves inside the penalty area. If a team chooses to take a goal kick or free kick quickly, they are doing so at their own risk as the normal build out line rules still apply.
2019/20 Laws of the Game – Changes and clarifications Quick Free Kicks and Red/Yellow Cards If a free kick is taken quickly, before an official has the chance to issue a Yellow or Red Card, and a goal-scoring opportunity is created, the referee can award the Yellow Card/Red Card at the next convenient point. Kicking Objects If you kick an object at the ball, an opponent or a match official the other team will receive a Direct Free Kick from the spot of the infraction. Goal Celebrations If a goal is disallowed, any Yellow Card given for an ‘illegal’ goal celebration still stands.
Handball The following ‘handball’ situations, even accidental, will be a free kick o The ball goes hits a player’s hand or arm and goes into the goal off an attacker. o A player gains control/possession after the ball has touched their hand/arm and scores, or creates a goal-scoring opportunity o The ball touches a player’s hand/arm where the player has tried to block the ball by extending their arms away from their body. o The ball touches a player’s hand/arm when it is above their shoulder (unless the player has deliberately played the ball which then touches their hand/arm) The following ‘handball’ situations will not usually be a free kick: o The ball touches a player’s hand/arm directly from: Their own head/body/foot, if the player has not made themselves unnaturally bigger The head/body/foot of another player who is close/near, if the player has not made themselves unnaturally bigger o The ball touches a player’s hand/arm which is close to their body and has not made their body unnaturally bigger o If a player is falling and the ball touches their hand/arm which is between their body and the ground to support the body (not extended to make the body bigger) The goalkeeper cannot score by throwing the ball into the opponent’s goal. If a goalkeeper attempts to play the ball by legal means on a throw-in or a deliberate pass from a teammate (heading, kicking) but the attempt is misplayed, the goalkeeper can play the ball with his/her hands.
2019/20 Laws of the Game – Changes and clarifications Clarifications Dropped ball If the ball touches the referee or another match official and goes into the goal, team possession changes or an attack for the opponents begins, a dropped ball is awarded. If play is stopped inside the penalty area, the ball will be dropped for the goalkeeper (no other player participates). If play is stopped outside the penalty area, the ball will be dropped for one player of the team that last touched the ball at the point of the last touch of the ball In all cases, all the other players of both teams must be 4. 5 yards away from the dropped ball. Free Kicks When there is a ‘wall’ of three or more defenders, attackers are not allowed within 1 yard of the wall. If an attacker is inside that 1 -yard area when the kick is taken, the defending team is given an Indirect Free Kick from the spot of the infraction. Indirect Free Kicks Once the kick has been taken and it is clear that a goal will not be scored from the kick, there is no more need for a signal.
Penalty Kick If an attacking team’s player is injured on the play they may have a quick treatment/assessment and then take the kick The goalkeeper cannot be touching the goalposts, crossbar or nets and cannot move until the ball is in play. The goalkeeper only needs to have one part of one foot on the goal line when the kick is taken. If an offense occurs between when the penalty is declared and before the kick is taken, the offender may receive a Yellow Card/Red Card but the penalty kick will still be taken. Player’s Equipment Players may wear multi-colored or patterned undershirts, if the undershirts are the same pattern or color as the main shirt. Verbal Offenses All verbal offenses will be penalized with at least an Indirect Free Kick.
