Commonly Asked Questions
Rosters:
Passes and rosters are to be returned to the team's manager or coach at the conclusion of the game. The Referee will return the home team roster to the visiting team coach and vice versa except, in the case of a red card, the referee will attach both rosters to the referee report.
For competitive teams:
A League roster may be used in place of an official FYSA state roster generated by the state office. If a league roster is used, the roster must be signed by an officer of the Treasure Coast Soccer League, Inc. prior to the start of the season and no changes may be made once the season starts.
Red Card Policy:
If a player or coach has been ejected, the referee shall complete the referee report form and fax, email, deliver or mail it to the president of the home club or the home club's referee assignor, within 24 hours. The referee shall include the USSF supplementary game report detailing the circumstances leading to the player's or coach's ejection from the game. The club president or referee assignor must fax the referee report and USSF supplementary game report to the Vice President of Rules within 24 hours. The Vice President of Rules will notify the offending player's club president of the red card suspension. It is the responsibility of the offending player's club to enforce the red card suspension. The fax number is (772) 225-1096.
The team coach is responsible for documenting any games sat out due to serving red card suspensions. If the player plays in a game prior to the completion of the suspension, the coach will be suspended for the remainder of the seasonal year plus one year.
Game reports:
Referees are not required to file a game report with the league unless there has been an ejection during the game. The referee should follow their club's rules for filing game reports. The home team is responsible for verifying the accuracy of a score with a referee report in the event of a dispute.
Forfeits:
In the event of a forfeited game, then the referee must complete and sign the game report, citing the reason for the forfeit, and forward the game report to the properly designated club or league representative within 24 hours of the game.
All appropriate Forms can be found in the Handout Section on the Main TCSL Home Page
Mercy Rules for TCSL
Mercy Rule (All Division)- an eight goal differential at the end of the first half or secured at any time during the second half shall terminate the game even if the coaches want to continue to play. It is encouraged that the winning coaches show good sportsmanship by modifying his team’s tactics in order to avoid this situation. All teams should be given the opportunity to play the entire game without embarrassment. Allowing the score to be run up to “mercy” the opposing team does not constitute good sportsmanship as determined by the TCSL.
The TCSL adopted the above 'Mercy Rule' for the competitive division beginning with the 2007-08 season.
