Levels of Play

Club Division
Teams with competitive experience: Premier, Select or Club teams.

Recreational Teams
Teams with limited competitive experience, beginner teams etc.

Our priority is to place teams in the best possible environment. In some cases, we will have 2-3 divisions per age group. However based on the number of teams, we may only have one division. The CNYFSC staff will build teams if needed to create divisions for all teams. Our goal is to ensure the league experience is enjoyable for everyone involved.

Rules of Play

The CNYFSC follows the 2023-2024 FIFA Laws of the Game, as well as the U.S. Soccer Concussion Initiative.

Small Field Rules (U4 - U6)

(4V4 No Goalkeepers) General Rules for Game and Practices 

 1. Have FUN!!! 

 2. General Rules for the game should be followed. 

 3. The play is 4v4 format with a size 3 ball. 

 4. There will be 4 quarters of 8 minutes each. 

 5. Substitutions can be made at any stoppage of play and between quarters. 

 6. Out-of-Bounds should be called when clearly out.

 7. A throw-in will restart the play. 

 8. Handballs should be called when a player intentionally handles the ball with their hands or arms. A free-kick will restart play. 

 9. There are no goalies. This also means that you should not position a player immediately in front of the goal. Teaching players to defend behind the pack is fine, but do not stand a stationary player in front of goal at any time. 

 When in doubt, see rule number one (Have FUN!)

Schedule Requests and Cancellations

We strive to provide the best possible customer service by honoring all reasonable schedule requests. However all schedule requests must be submitted when registering your team online. There are blackout dates and time requests options on the registration form.

If you have a time request and it is not honored, we will make the game up. If you have not submitted a schedule request and you cancel your game, we will not make up the game. If you have a game scheduled and the opposing team cancels, we will do our best to get a team to play against you or you can use the field for a free training session.

The only way that games will be cancelled by CNYFSC is if the NYS Thruway is closed at Exit 39 due to inclement weather. If this happens, it will be posted on our website and all teams will be contacted. We will do our best to make up affected games.

Please let us know if you have any questions and we look forward to a great winter of indoor soccer!
