9-a-side
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.

7-a-side
For G12 and B12 (born 2014), this is a competitive category with A and B playoffs, and a minimum of 4 matches per team.

Other categories — B11 and G11 (born 2015) as well as B10 and G10 (born 2016) — will start with an initial group stage of 4 teams, where everyone plays each other. After the first group stage, teams will be re-drawn based on results, meaning first-place teams play against other first-place teams, second against second, and so on, to ensure balanced and enjoyable matches for everyone. This principle will be followed as far as possible.

With this setup, all participating teams will play at least five matches.

Match duration:

• 2 x 20 minutes for the 2014-born competitive category.

• 2 x 15 minutes for all other categories, with a maximum 5-minute halftime break.
