c.  Team Schedules

1.  Each team will get a 10 game schedule prior to the start of the season

2.  The Season is 12 weeks.  Accordingly, all teams will have at least 2 weekends without a game and possibly more if teams have more than 1 game on any given weekend.

3.  Teams will be scheduled to play other teams in their respective divisions

d.  Reschedules 

1.   The league is unable to reschedule games

2.   Teams needing to reschedule will have to contact opponents directly through the Futsal San Jose website. 

3.   Rescheduling Options - Because the league generally has few if any extra timeslots at any of the gyms, teams not able to play during their scheduled time have the following options:

              i.  With your opponent’s agreement, find 2 teams in another timeslot willing to trade with you

              ii. Contact any team in your division that is willing to trade places with you.  In other words, find a team to play in your time slot against your scheduled opponent and your team would play in their timeslot against their scheduled opponent. 

              iii.  Forfeit - If no other option is available.

e.  Equipment

1.  You will be required to provide game balls. You need at least one, and should have one in reserve as they sometimes go flat during games. U12 and under need a size #3 Futsal ball, all older teams play with size #4 balls. If two teams of different age groups play each other the smaller sized balls are used, unless both coaches agree to use the larger balls. The same sized balls must be used for the whole game.

2.  Players need shin-guards, indoor shoes, and a uniform (shirt, shorts, socks). T-Shirts with the same color are fine, use a marker to add numbers please. You should have one set of white shirts, and one set of color shorts. Goalkeeper need a different shirt (same rule as outdoor soccer). If you have uniforms for nearly all players but one or two they can wear a similarly colored t-shirt and shorts. 

NOTE: Outdoor balls are not allowed in the gym at any time. 

f.  Guest Players

1.  We allow each team to have up to two guest players per game, as long as the total number of players available for a game is 7 players or less. Example: if you have 6 players from your team you can add one guest players.

2.  Guest players must have a valid Futsal San Jose player pass for the season, and be of the right age for your team.
