Sportsmanship/Fairness Rule
In the spirit of fairness and fun we have the following rule for all Tournament games for 2016. It's purpose is to reduce scores being run up on mismatched Teams and increase the enjoyment for all participants.
A Team with a goal difference greater than 7 will have 2 goals deducted from their Total Goals for every goal beyond the 7 goal differential.
Example: A Team winning 13-3 would have 2 goals deducted for every goal scored beyond their 10 goals. Therefore the Team with 13 Goals has a 10 goal differential with only 3 goals beyond the allowed 7 goal differential. Each of the goals is considered 2 equalling 6 goals deducted from the 13 and the score would be considered 7-3.
