PLEASE READ AND SHARE WITH PLAYERS, COACHES & FANS
*Adult league games can be difficult for officials and the league to manage. In an effort to keep the entry cost reasonable the league employs 2-3 officials per game. Teams are expected to play with integrity and assist the official when possible. Team reps must share the below initiative with their players to assist the league in operating a fair and enjoyable playing environment:
The level of play is high but the physicality and dissent must be controlled by each team/player and will be managed by the referee. With that said, the “laws of the game” will be closely enforced. Officials will attempt to allow the game to play but “intentional or persistent fouling” will become a problem. Intentional contact includes when a player bodies another player or uses his/her hands to purposely foul and gain an advantage. Proper shielding of the ball, inadvertent contact during the run of play or a situation where a “clear” advantage is in play will allow a “play-on” to occur. Generally the advantage will be allowed in the offensive area where a scoring opportunity is developing. The league will not tolerate persistent infringement of these rules and will continue to work to improve the RASL game so it is competitive but fun for all teams involved.
