Jamboree Rules

• We encourage the coaches to help the players with on-field coaching, within reason.
• There will be a 2 “attempted” pass rule before shooting.  At least 1 pass must be made in your offensive end.
• Subs can be made when the ball goes out of bounds.  When subbing, coaches should sub all 4 players at the same time.  Teams should also try to sub together to limit the number of stops.  Coaches can also sub players on the fly if needed.
• If there is a penalty, there will be a “play on” situation.   If the team loses the ball immediately, the ball will be given back to them.
• To keep the game moving and to limit the number of stops, there will only be a face-off at the beginning of the game. 
• After a goal, the team who was scored on will receive the ball.  The defensive team must drop back past the midline.
• No long poles, no body checks, no one-handed checks.
• If your team is up by more than 4 goals, please encourage your team to try and work the ball around 1 time before shooting, and/or getting assisted goals.
