o   Wing Midfielders will be off the field between the restraining lines until the whistle begins play (There are no Wing Midfielders at high school level).

o   Other players will remain behind the restraining lines until possession is called.

Faceoff/Draw:

Offside:

o   Teams must have 1 player in their defensive half of the field at all times.
