minutes • Penalty time is regulated by timer. Count out
loud to the player during last 10 seconds. state “ release”…to allow him back into game. (“…3,2,1,release”)
Timer: PenaltiesPenalties: Penalty time runs with game time. If the game clock is stopped (a whistle is blown) then the penalty time is stopped.
If there is still time on a penalty at the end of the quarter, the player finishes serving it at the beginning of the next quarter.
Timer: PenaltiesReleasable vs Nonreleaseable: Releasable:
Most penalties are releasable. If the OTHER team scores, the penalty is released no matter how much time is still left.

FACE OFFS
On a face off, there is almost ALWAYS a ground ball.
Face offs are a team stat.
Other Team Stats

and ‘clears’ the 50 yard line and still has possession.
• Extra Man: Scored/Failed–Did you score while you were man
up?
Tips
• Keep a spare timer with you• Have something to hold the flip score
down in windy weather• Use multi-colored pens/pencils• You do your score, they do theirs. Copy
their team stats down after each quarter.
End of Game
• If you are the home team, the officials must sign your book.
