1x1 KFTPM

In the event of a tie after full-time in a match where a winner must be decided, kicks from the mark will be administered, per FIFA. Only the players on the field at the end of the match will be permitted to take a kick. Each team will get one kick, until a winner is decided. No player shall kick twice until all players on the field have taken a kick. A coin-toss will determine which team will decide if they would like to kick first or second.

Match times

Games are tightly scheduled with 5 minutes half times and 5 minutes between games. Should delays occur, please reduce half time and in between game time breaks while maintaining halves of equal length.
