Spring Rule Changes!

U7 Birth Year

All players in the U7 division will have a birth year of 1/1/2017-12/31/2017. All of CCSA will be transitioning to birth year as our age brackets starting with U7. This took effect in Fall of 2023. In the fall districts were allowed to play 8/1/2016 - 12/31/2016 players at U7 due to just coming out of U6. Districts were allowed to have these players play in a single season at U7, instead of going straight to U8. Bethel did take advantage of this for most of these late 2016 birthdates for 2 reasons. (1) It allowed these players a season of transition to the same size fields with new rules and (2) Both boys and girls U8 were both at a max for size in Fall of 2023. Per board vote on 2/5/2024, we will be moving late 2016 birthdays to U8 to keep the new birth year rule in compliance.

U8 and U9

U8 and U9

  • Game length will be 4, 12 min quarters for both U8 and U9 (this is a time change for both ages)
  • Both U8 and U9 will use a size 4 ball (previously U8 used a size 3)
  • No second throw in. If the first throw in is incorrect, the ball will turn over to the opposing team.

U10 and U11

  • Goal kicks do not have to exit the goal box to be a live ball in play. The opposing team must line up outside the box until the first kick is made from the goal kick line. It does not have to leave the box, in order to play it. Once the ball is kicked, the opposing team can enter the box to play it (this is how U12  and U14 play as well as Ohio HS).

U12

  • Will play 2, 30 min halves, instead of 4, 15 min quarters.
  • Change to a size 5 ball.
