- 2024 NFHS Rules with modifications below
Playoff Rules (Sunday)
- 2 – 21 minutes halves
- 3- minute halftime
- Playoff Games…
- Teams are awarded (1) one-minute time-out per team in Regulation Time
- The clock will stop. Timeout does NOT roll over to OT. No timeouts in OT
- A timeout can be called when the team calling the timeout is in possession of the ball, anywhere on the field.
- Overtime will begin immediately and be decided by sudden victory. OT will have a Running Clock on all whistles. The first goal scored wins the game.
- Injuries
- Any injury within 2 minutes and under that requires the game to be stopped, the clock stops with the injury.
- For any injury with more than 2 minutes remaining when the game is stopped, a maximum of 1 minute will come off the clock to assess the injury before the clock is stopped
BOYS SPECIFIC RULES
- No stick checks unless refs think a stick is outrageously illegal
- 4 pole maximum on the field
- Mercy Rule – 2033 Only
- Applied when there is a 5-goal deficit in pool play. Teams down by 5 or more goals will get a free clear after each goal. Coaches can agree to waive this rule.
- Counts: 2025 – 2032: 30 seconds to advance the ball into the box.
- 2033: No counts. Exception is a 4-second goalie count
- Championship/Playoff Games Only: The leading team must keep it in the box under 2 minutes if they are ahead by 2 goals or less.

- If teams are ahead by 3 goals or more, the clock will remain running
- Checking
- Limited body checking in 2029 – 2033. Big hits & physical play (even within three yards of a loose ball) constitute unnecessary roughness (90 sec penalty)
- One-handed stick checks are not allowed in any youth divisions (2033 and below)
- Penalties
- Penalties are running time starting on the whistle (45 or 90 seconds) Penalty time stops during injuries, end of quarters, and while another penalty is being assessed.

- For the team playing their 3rd game, the results will count for points and goals against
- In the event that there is a tiebreaker scenario, which includes a teams head-to-head being their fourth game, that has been identified with ‘*’ the head-to-head will NOT be applied.
- In the event, a team is declared a winner due to forfeit
- For ranking purposes, the goals against average for the pool play games will be the average of the games that were completed

- If 2 teams are tied with POINTS:
