Age Divisions and Fields

The tournament comprises four separate age divisions: U12, U15, U19 Boys, and U19 Girls. The field sizes will vary based on the age groupings. Each field will be divided in half by a mid-line, with a goal located at each end-line (goal sizes will vary depending on the age division).

Rules for Keeper Wars

• Keeper Wars is a 1v1 tournament-style game.

• Goalkeepers must remain within their own half of the field and are prohibited from crossing the mid-line.

• The objective is to defend one's own goal while attempting to score in the opposition's goal through throwing, bowling, side volleying, or kicking the ball.

• Each goalie has a time limit of 6 seconds to release the ball.

• Goalkeepers may take unlimited steps within their own half of the field.

• Play resumes immediately after a successful save, and goalkeepers can continue playing rebounds as long as the ball remains in their own half of the field.

• A goal is awarded only when the ball completely crosses the goal line.

• If the ball goes out of bounds, play restarts from the end line with the goalkeeper who did not touch the ball last.

• Games consist of two halves, each lasting 3 minutes, with a 1-minute halftime break.

• The winner of a game is determined by the goalkeeper who scores the most goals after the game's completion.
