Plate Competition Rules

While we accept that there is not a lot of rest time between games and that some teams will play consecutive games, this is unfortunate and can't be helped but it is the same for all sides concerned and we only have limited time, so to assist with the timings: Teams must be ready to go onto the correct pitch 5 minutes before start times and Managers are reminded that ALL TEAM TALKS must take place off the pitch, Referees will tell Managers to move to pitch side if they are giving a team talk on the pitch. Once again this is because we have limited time with the pitches. In a colour clash all teams must bring with them colour bibs (different colour to their kit) the away team are to wear bibs.

Yellow & Red Cards: If these are issued by the referee as a league we would expect them to sent onto the County FA for normal processing, in the event of a red card the player will take no further part in the competition,  the players name would  be noted by the league and they would forgo a place in the plate final. The Players and Managers are warned, if you want to play in the final (Players) or have a full squad for the final (Managers) ensure you don't have your name / players name taken by the referee.
