BETHESDA TOURNAMENT RULES:
Rules will be as established by the Bethesda Lacrosse Association www.bethesdalacrosse.org as noted.
1. Players may compete for only ONE team during the tournament. Any player found to be playing on two teams will cause a forfeit for both of the teams they participated with. Any team that uses an illegal player at any time in the tournament will be suspended immediately. There will be roster checks throughout the entire tournament. Please have the roster you submitted at the start of the season available for inspection - upon request. Bethesda League coaches also need to provide rosters with name, birthdate and jersey numbers
2. Seedings for the tournament were determined by division league games only. No Intra-League games were counted toward seedings. (does not apply to Tyker Division)
3. Tyker Division Seedings were done based on the strength of the Teams – as determined by the League Commissioner – based on strength of schedule and results during the regular season. The bottom 5 Teams are playing a separate Consolation Bracket.
4. There will be no stick checks unless requested by the opposing coach, and if the stick is found not to be illegal, the challenging team will be charged a timeout. If no timeouts remain, a delay of game technical foul will be assessed.
5. Games will be running on 12 minute running quarters.
6. There will be a “Mercy Rule” for all age groups. If a Team establishes a lead of 10 goals – the game will be ended by the referee.
