YN Church. If an individual makes a habitual routine to skip service and just come out to play ball hockey, the league may ask you to step away and let those who are active members / attenders to play instead. Please understand that this is

nothing personal, but rather we want to focus on the fellowship and growth of our community

Time Format:

2 x 20 minute halves, run time except for penalty calls, injuries, and penalty shots.

5 minutes for goalie warm up, 1 minute intermission. 

Overtime - Shootouts, 5 on 5, 1 member has to be a female. If a female is not available, opposing team choose one person on the team to take the spot.

Points - 2 pts for win, 1 pts for tie in regulation / shootout tie / shootout loss

Penalties:

Any stick infractions - high sticking, slashing, hooking - loss of ball possession

Unnecessary roughing, and non-accidental body contact - 2 minute minor, on the 2nd penalty it'll be a game misconduct

Fighting - zero tolerance, first infraction will be automatic game misconduct, second time you will be asked to leave the league, no refunds

Line changes:

On the fly

Timeouts:

1 per half, cannot carry over. Team that called timeout will get ball possession behind their own net.

No Slapshots - Will be calling this the Paul Choi rule. It`s mostly for safety precautions as we don`t want people swinging their sticks too high. 

No shots from your own end - No shooting at the goalie from your own end. Must be at least 3/4 way in before shooting (initially 1/2 court but that may be too small of a space to operate in)

Short on Players Rule - If the team has only 4 + 1 Goalie, the opposing team can choose up to 2 individuals to play on that team. Substitute players will not be eligible for the points they accrue during the game. 

Goalie Stoppage Rule - Once goalie has made a stop, opposing team must give the goaltender space to give the ball to one of his players.
