Matches are played for 13 minutes, with a 2-minute break between matches. |
| Guaranteed Matches |
Each team is guaranteed at least 6-7 matches in the tournament. |
| Substitutions |
Unlimited substitutions during the game. Substitutions can be made without stopping the game, but the player on the field must step out of the touchline before the substitute enters (baton touch). Violating this will result in 1 warning. |
| Fouls |
3 warnings -> ejection. The player cannot participate in the rest of that match. Another player may substitute. |

| Goalkeeper Rules |
The goalkeeper can kick or throw the ball. |
| The goalkeeper is allowed to throw the ball into the opponent’s half. |
| Only one backpass to the goalkeeper is allowed. |

| Point Calculation |
Points > Goal difference > Most goals scored (in that order). |
