Each game consists of two 12.5 minute running time periods. Time is kept by the referee on the field. 6. Penalties are called and served as they are in a regular field lacrosse game. The referee releases penalized players when their serve time has expired. Penalty time does not start until the penalized player takes a knee, out of bounds, at the midline, on the bench side of the field. 7. A game ending tied is decided by a single 4 minute sudden-death overtime, which begins immediately after regulation time with a faceoff. If the game is still tied at the end of the sudden death overtime period, the game will count in the standings as a tie. 8. Each period begins with a faceoff. 9. After a goal is scored the ball is awarded to the scored upon goalie who puts the ball in play from his crease area. A referee must whistle to indicate play has recommenced. If a team falls behind by 6 or more goals, they are awarded the ball at midfield after they've been scored upon. 10. All player substitutions are on the fly. Players must touch sticks at the intersection of the midline and the sideline before entering the field of play. 11. Each team is allotted one timeout per half and one in overtime. Timeouts are one minute long. 12. Team members must wear matching jerseys or tank tops which are numbered. 13. ANY PLAYERS OR COACHES INVOLVED IN A FIGHT WILL BE EXPELLED FROM THE TOURNAMENT. No second chances. The JMJ Tournament has ZERO tolerance for fighting. 14.
