distance. In the event a tie breaker is necessary, it should
be conducted as follows: each contestant will have the
opportunity to take three kicks from a position three yards
behind the designated age penalty line. If the contestants
are still tied they will then continue to take turns of three
kicks each until a clear winner emerges.
Scoring
The goal will be divided into a series of five scoring
zones. The upper corners of the goal will be designated
as 20-point zones. The lower corners will be designated
as 10-point zones and the central region is a five-point
zone.
