Game schedule

All your games will be listed on your teams webpage and there is also a page with all games for a given day. Schedules get published up to 4 weeks in advance.

How games are scheduled

We schedule games such that each team should have 10 games at the end of the season (we guarantee 8, but have enough gym time for 10 games for everyone). However, if you require too many byes, specify byes only very late in the season, or cancel games after they have been scheduled we might not be able to get you the 10 games.

Each team will get zero to two games per weekend. If your team has two games they are almost always scheduled at the same gym, with one game in between.

Team names and head coaches

In order to create good schedules we use the following information:

Game time: Teams that have a 30min or longer driver to a gym will not get games scheduled at 8am or after 8pm. However, in order for the scheduler to know this your team name MUST include the city you come from. So for those teams that far away please use a name of the form "Santa Cruz Surfers" not just "Dolphins".
one coach, multiple teams: if you have more than one team and would like them to play back to back games (to make it easier if you need guest players and for the coaches) make sure that those teams have the exact same name as head coach ("Ben Smith" and "Benny Smith" are NOT the same coach) on your teams web-page. You can specify on your teams page that an assistant coach or manager is the main contact point if necessary. Note that it is not always possible to schedule games back-to-back.
Byes: Must be specified on your teams web-page. Emails with bye requests will be promptly deleted!

Note that we are using software to check for scheduling times, byes, head to head games, so typos are important! We used to do this all by hand, but with 80 teams thats no longer possible.

Week days

This year nearly all of our gym time is on Sunday only. Therefore please do not ask to have games only on Saturdays, its just not possible. Also, requests of the form 'no morning games' are frowned upon.

Byes

You can set dates when you need a bye by editing your teams web-page. Instructions can be found here. This is the only way you can schedule a bye. Schedules are published about 3 to 4 weeks in advance. Once the schedule has been published you have to either play the game or forfeit it. It will not be rescheduled!

Home teams, First and last games

If your team is listed as the home team for the first or last game of a gym you are responsible to get the goals or move them outside and lock them up. For some gyms this might include a short walk, make sure your parents know about this. All our facilities pages include the necessary information (well, they will after the first week when we figure out all the details).

Note: visiting team selects which side they want to play first, home team kicks off first half.
