Sportsmanship Rule

Please note that this rule applies to U9-U19 recreational teams within SYSL. There is no score keeping in the lower age groups. SYSL believes that it is important to maintain good sportsmanship during games that turn out to be lopsided. Despite our efforts to seed teams in appropriate divisions, there are always instances where one team is far superior to another. Despite the valuable life lessons inherent in losing and losing gracefully, there is a difference between losing a close spot contest and being blown out by a far better team. In the ladder type of losses, the hurt feelings tend to hinder the ability to absorb the life lessons involved in losing.

 In order to promote respect and good sportsmanship, as well as heat the atmosphere fun and friendly, SYSL acceptable winning margin is a goal differential of six. Teams that win by a margin of seven or more will get a warning from SYSL or Club manager. The second time the team wins by a goal differential of seven or more, both games in which the team exceeded the goal differential of 7 will be converted to a loss in the standings. The AGC or Club manager will contact the SYSL president to have the standings changed the SYSL president (with the assistance of club managers) will keep track of the lopsided wins for future reseeding purposes.

All lopsided scores will be reported to the SYSL PAD committee and repeated infractions may lead to further disciplinary measures.
