Golden Goal Rule

Golden Goal Rule

  • There are no draws in semi's or finals - there has to be a winner and loser. 
  • Should be game be a draw at the full time chime, PLAY IS CONTINUED UNTIL THE NEXT GOAL IS SCORED - there is no break. 
    • The team that scores the next goal after the full time chime is the winner of the game.

To make the umpire aware of a possible draw situation, the score taker should quietly advise one of the umpires of this so they are aware to continue the game when the full time chime sounds.

Impartiality

We request that all umpires ensure they are impartial with their umpiring.
