The B13 and G13 (born 2013) categories will be played as 9-a-side, with A and B playoffs, and a minimum of 4 matches per team.

Competition Rules:

  • Pitch size: 65–70 x 50 meters. The exact pitches used for the 9-a-side categories will be determined based on the number of registered teams.

  • Nine substitutes are allowed per match.

  • Ball size 4 for both G13 and B13.

  • 11-a-side rules apply, meaning offside, red cards for denying goal-scoring opportunities, throw-ins, goal kicks, and back passes to the goalkeeper follow standard 11-a-side football rules. Offside applies from the halfway line, and there is no retreat line.

  • 7-a-side or 9-a-side goals will be used for G13 and B13.

  • Penalty kicks are taken from 9 meters.

  • Match duration: 2 x 20 minutes with a maximum 5-minute halftime break.
