OFFICIAL RULES
Session/Games: 8 Game Schedule. 40 Minute Games.
Start Date: The weekend of November 16, 2019.
T-Shirts: Benfield Sportscenter T-Shirts will be provided for individuals signing up for a House Team only. If your team would like to purchase T-Shirts, please let us know in the comments and notes section at the bottom of the registration page. T-Shirt requests can also be sent to leagues@benfieldsc.com.
Rosters: All Teams must fill out a full team roster and complete our online waiver. For insurance purposes, completion of the waiver is mandatory. After completing registration for your team, you will receive an email with a link to complete the roster. If you do not receive an email, please contact us at leagues@benfieldsc.com. Completing the roster is an easy process and will insure a fun and safe experience for everyone.
Forfeited Games: If a team fails to show for a scheduled game, the referee will allow a 5 minute grace period. After the 5 minutes, if the team has not yet arrived or does not have enough players to field a team (4), the game will be forfeited. The game will be tallied as a 3 to 0 loss for the forfeiting team and a 3 to 0 win for their opponent. There will be no refunds for a forfeited game.
Games Cancelled By Opponents: If an opponent cancels a game or does not show up for the game, the other team may use the game time to scrimmage or train. There are no refunds for games cancelled by opponents. If a team must cancel, please call Benfield Sportscenter (410-987-5100) as soon as possible, so we can notify the referees and give the other team a chance to plan accordingly. Games cancelled by teams will not be rescheduled until a $100 rescheduling fee is paid to Benfield Sportscenter by the cancelling team. If it is not rescheduled, the game will be forfeited.
Games Cancelled By Benfield Sportscenter: We reserve the right to postpone or cancel games at any time, for any reason, such as inclement weather or facility problems. We will make every effort to reschedule games, but there are no guarantees. There are no refunds for games cancelled by Benfield Sportcenter.
Nobody likes a blowout. Most coaches and parents would agree, the lessons of sportsmanship are as important as those of winning and losing, and that lopsided scores are a serious affront to fair play. While we strive to place teams in brackets where they will be both challenged AND competitive, we cannot guarantee the occasional mismatch. If one team is overwhelming another, we would ask that the coach use the game as a training exercise by working on possession or requiring one touch passing, etc., rather than running up the score. That way, both teams can benefit from a more positive experience.
