Youth Rules Clarifications

All,
I wanted to update you on some rules clarifications for all Youth Games.
1. The rule has not changed about flag down, ball down. In all youth level games, if you throw a flag and have a slow whistle, other than a shot, if the ball hits the ground, you will blow the whistle to stop play. High School allows continuation, youth does not.
2. IYLA has adopted a no long pole rule for all 10U. If a coach or both coaches want to allow long poles, they are still prohibited
3. 10U games are always 10 minute runnning quarters. Do not stop the clock halfway through a quarter when coaches want to do mass subs. That is why we went to 10 minute quarters.

Email me with any questions.
