42
² - NorCal Passes: Only referee or delegate of referee can write-in players or coaches on to match card, all players and coaches must have physical or electronic pass (In GotSport, not stand-alone image 'screeshots') - 'Officiate not administrate'

44
⁴ - NorCal: http://www.norcalreferees.com/sendoff/. (NorCal requesting send-off reports through GotSport, in process) CYSA https://system.gotsport.com/forms/9E6311389
45
⁵ - CYSA: players 12 years of age and younger may not head the ball in any age level where they participate AND all U11 and younger players must be clearly identifiable to the referee (e.g., armband) to enforce this rule.

⁶ - JV plays 35 minute halves, as light permits
47
⁷ - Some leagues offer 7v7 formats for U08s
48
⁸ - U16 Elite Academy League observes 45 minute halves - all EA games are supposed to have a 15 minute halftime, so long is it doesn't impact the next match scheduled; paid accordingly
49
⁹ - For NorCal, N1 and ECNL-RL U13-U14, unlimited substitutions are now permitted (max 3 moments per half for ECNL-RL). For ECNL-RL U15 and above, 7 substitutions per half, no re-entry in that half. For Elite Academy, see the Pensra little green book for all EA-specific rules (no re-entry, 7 subs during 3 'moments')
50
¹⁰ - N1 35' halves for U14
51
¹¹ - ECNL-RL has adopted scholastic year, EA TBD
52
¹² - Play-down for send-off only applies to Tournament events
53
*NorCal: no guest limit within club (Club pass). CYSA: o.k. within registration district (02-xx-xx). Always only age-appropriate. Spring, '22: CCSL U13 up to 18, U14 up to 22.
54
55
**NorCal and N1 now have unlimited substitutions, so special rules for GKs are not necessary. For ECNL-RL and EA, one re-entry per half for injuries; suspected head injuries excluded for GKs and field players. NEW for Fall, '23: No re-entry for the duration of the half.
56
***Some U08s will have 7v7 leagues set-up
