New Rules on Borrowing Players.

We have noticed a number of teams "borrowing" players from other teams lately. In the past this went against our rules but we have now decided to allow each team to borrow only 1 player from any team in the league to get matches on and so that everyone can get a game! Teams will be monitored to ensure no one takes advantage of this rule. Teams will only be able to borrow a player to make their team up to 5. You cannot borrow a player to give you a sub.

 


Welcome to Fever Pitch Fives !!

5-a-side football is now more popular and than its 11-a-side partner. This is little wonder since “fives” is an ideal way of maintaining your personal fitness and honing your football skills. Moreover, it gives you an opportunity to meet new people and be involved in your local community.

 


New Season of Fever Pitch Fives !!

The new season of Fever Pitch Fives in Frome will kick off on Tuesday 25th October 2011. We are still looking for a few new teams so if anyone knows of a team that wants to join, then point them in our direction........and don't forget that if you do, a £25 reward will be yours!!!

We will be introducing the following new rules to Fever Pitch Fives starting on 4th January 2010: -

  • Back Pass Rule. Keepers will no longer be allowed to pick the ball up from a back pass. If a keeper picks a ball up from a back pass, a direct free kick will be awarded from the edge of the penalty area adjacent to where the ball was handled.
  • Keepers will now be allowed to dive to make a save with their feet within his area. Failure to win the ball will result in a penalty. A slide tackle outside his area will result in a free kick and possibly a Blue card.
  • Top goal scorer. Each time a player scores he must tell the referee in charge of his surname. The ref will then record it. If a player does not tell the Referee his name, the goal will not be added to the top goal scorers table.
  • An opposition player must be 5 yards away for free kicks and 2 yards away for throw in's.

The FA's Respect Campaign!

As most of you will already be aware, the FA are running a respect campaign at all levels of the game. Referee abuse is a big issue in the game especially at grass roots level and we need to get it out of the game. We have lost a few good referee's recently due to the amount of abuse they were receiving. Being a Ref is not an easy job and they will never get every decision correct. Please keep this in mind as it is very difficult to recruit new officials for our league and we'd like to keep who we have!!

Remember, No Ref's, No Game!!
