2 football 9 v 9 Organising the game Play 9v9 games. Up to 24 players in one match can be used. Make sure they enter the pitch in the right area. Use football leaders to act as timekeepers. Appoint a leader to act as a manager to each team. Use football leaders who have qualified as referees to referee the game and run the line. Think inclusively Think about creating safe zones for players with mobility problems where they cannot be tackled. Refereeing Discuss the rules with the players before the game. Keeping it enjoyable Try a computerised scoring system. Why not introduce some cheerleading to the competition? Reward teams who RESPECT the REF with a fair play award. Make sure the substitutes have somewhere to sit. Officiating To promote RESPECT referees should work with the team captains to manage the players and the game effectively.

Left and right-sided midfield players with an advanced midfielder and two strikers formation Three defenders with two central midfield players.

Spirit of the Games: Excellence through Competition Celebrate goals, but quickly re-focus, as teams are often at their weakest just after scoring.

3 secondary Intra-school/Level 1 Resource football - soccer sevens Quick introduction The FA believes that appropriate competition should be made available to all people whatever their level of ability. It also believes that disabled people should be playing in mainstream football competition. Some disabled players may be better provided for in competitive football such as pan disability or impairment-specific football on a temporary or permanent basis. Think tactics Think carefully about the formation to use. Getting started The length of the touchline MUST be greater than the length of the goal line. Minimum - 50m, maximum - 60m. Width - minimum 30m, maximum - 40m. 5m x 2m goalposts would ideally be used (mini soccer posts are also permissible). Two teams of 7-a-side play two equal periods of over five and up to 25 minutes in each period. The preferred playing surface should be a third generation artificial turf pitch. Where third generation artificial turf pitch is not used a sand-filled artificial turf pitch is acceptable. Other surfaces such as a sports hall or natural turf are permitted providing that competing teams do not comprise of amputee players who use crutches. If amputee footballers (who use crutches) wish to participate, the playing surface must be either third generation artificial turf or a sand filled artificial turf. Goalkeepers must not touch or control the ball with their hands when deliberately kicked to him or her by a member of their team (a direct free kick should be awarded). Goalkeeper coming out of area - penalty. Rolling ball out from goalkeeper. No sliding tackles.

4 Football - soccer sevens Getting started continued Restart the game after the ball has gone out with either a traditional throw-in, an underarm roll-in or a kick-in (dependent on the ability level of the player). Sin bins are allowed Yellow card two minutes. Red card - duration of game. Teams are permitted to have three substitutes and players are permitted to re-enter the field of play (unlimited substitutions). There is no offside. Free kicks are either direct or indirect players must be two yards away from the ball. Sliding tackles are not permitted. Organising the game Play 7v7 single sex games (mixed football can only occur up to and including the U13 age group). Up to 20 players in one match can be used. Make sure they enter the pitch in the right area. Use football leaders as timekeepers. Appoint a leader to act as a manager to each team. Use football leaders who have qualified as referees. Keeping it enjoyable Try a computerised scoring system. Why not introduce some cheerleading to the competition? Reward teams who RESPECT the REF with a fair play award. Make sure the substitutes have somewhere to sit. Equipment A size 4 ball should be used for players aged U11 to U14 and a size 5 ball for players aged 14+. Safety Use the right footwear for the surface you are playing on. Wear shin pads. Avoid dangerous challenges. Think inclusively Pan disability football refers to competition between teams comprised of individuals with differing impairments, playing together, regardless of the limitations in play. Wheelchair users and blind players should play impairment-specific football. Ability banding festivals should be delivered to ensure that players are grouped into relevant teams. Deaf players are permitted to wear their hearing aids and should not be asked to remove them formation Central, left and right-sided defenders with an advanced central midfield player and two strikers formation Two defenders with a deep lying midfield player, left and right-sided wide players and a central striker formation Central, left and right-sided defenders with two central midfielders and a central striker. Spirit of the Games: Excellence through Competition Captains have no special status or privileges under the laws of the game, but they do have a degree of responsibility for the behaviour of their teams.

5 secondary Intra-school/Level 1 Resource football - futsal Quick introduction Futsal is a fast-moving inclusive 5-a-side game that can easily be played in a sports hall. Fast restarts and allowing the ball to go overhead add extra excitement. Getting started Play 2 x 20 minute halves played in real time. Game to be played in a sports hall. Ball can go over head height. Restart the game after the ball has gone out by kicking the ball back into play from the touchline and from corners. Goalkeepers are allowed out of their penalty area and players are allowed in. When goalkeepers are restarting the game after the ball has gone out of play, they must throw the ball and are then not allowed to touch it again until an opponent has touched it or the goalkeeper receives the ball in the opponent s half. Each team can give away five direct free kicks in each half. On the sixth foul a direct free kick is awarded to the opposition and the defending team is not allowed to position any players other than the goalkeeper between the ball and the goal. Each team is allowed one time out in each half. Think tactics How can you always keep possession from a restart? Restart game from kick-in Ball may go over head height.

6 football - futsal Organising the game Play 5v5 games. Up to 12 players in one match can be used. Make sure they enter the pitch in the right area. Use roll-on, roll-off subs to give everyone game play. Use football leaders as timekeepers to ensure real time is played. Appoint a manager to each team and ensure they know they can use their time-out each half. Think inclusively Think about creating safe zones for players with mobility problems where they cannot be tackled. Officiating Discuss the rules with the players before the game. Four second rule for kick-ins, goal clearances and corner kicks the player in possession of the ball only has four seconds to restart play. The referee should hold up their hand to show count the four seconds. Keeping it enjoyable Try a computerised scoring system. Why not introduce some cheerleading to the competition? Reward teams who RESPECT the REF with a fair play award. Make sure the substitutes have somewhere to sit. Make it easier Practise passing and scoring before playing. Learn some basic Futsal moves. Spirit of the Games: Excellence through Competition Respect the referee by not appealing for fouls etc. Safety Ensure the pitch has run off areas.

7 secondary Intra-school/Level 1 Resource football - 11 v 11 Quick introduction In this traditional game of 11v11 the game can be adapted by considering rotating players and substitutes and introducing the ideas from the RESPECT programme. Getting started Try not to have more than 16 players per squad. The focus should be enjoyment, participation and learning. Players should want to play to win, but the focus should still be around technical, physical, psychological and social development of the player. Encourage players to undertake a fair play handshake before the game commences. Consider the pitch and goal size where possible. It should be appropriate to the players needs and will allow the players to experience different pitch sizes. Think tactics Choose a formation that really suits the team.

8 football - 11 v 11 Organising the game Play on a pitch 80x50 to 90x50 (U12), 90x50 to 100x60 (U13-U14), 90x50 to 100x70 (U15+). (All dimensions are in yards.) Use 21x7 feet goals (U12-U14), 24x8 (U15+). Play the offside law. Consider allowing the players to conduct their own team warm-up and cool down. Encourage the players to consider their team s and the opposition s formation in relation to tactics. Keeping it enjoyable Ensure that the substitutes are engaged with a gamerelated task and/or keep warm to be prepared to go onto the field of play. Play three thirds instead of two halves up to U15. Safety Ensure the field of play is safe including the goalposts and corner posts. Ensure the players are wearing the correct kit and are not wearing jewellery. Officiating Allow young referees to take charge of the game under the supervision of a mentor. Think inclusively Consider the rotation of the players so that players with different abilities can play positions that suit them, but also do not get stuck in just one position. See the 7v7 game. Equipment required Goals, nets, corner posts, footballs, bibs, cones, tactics board, drinks formation Central, left and right-sided defenders, two central midfield players, two attacking wingers and two strikers formation Three central defenders, three central midfielders, two attacking wingers that can also track back and defend, plus two strikers formation Central, left and right-sided defenders with three central midfielders and three strikers, two of which can play wider on the wings. Spirit of the Games: Excellence through Competition The rotation of players can really help them understand different positions and understand the importance of other members of the team. Goalkeepers really love playing centre forward! Formation Formation
