MATCH SYSTEM
NO TIED GAME. All games are played with International FIRS rules in two times twenty (2×20) minutes. At the end of each game, if the score is tied, a 5 minutes overtime is played. If the score is still tied at the end of the overtime, a four (4) shoots on goal session is played. In case of a match ending in draw after the regular shoot on goal session, a one (1) shoot on goal session is repeated until one team defeat its opponent. The teams are free to choose any player for this repeated session.
GROUP CLASSIFICATION. Teams’ ranking in a group is obtained by adding up the number of points won by each team in each group match.
Equality of points. If two or more teams are equal on points, they are classified based on criteria listed below. Once a team is ranked, the ranking process restarts with the remaining teams from the first criteria of this list, until all teams are ranked:
- Higher number of points obtained in the group matches played among the teams in question
- Lowest total number of goals-allowed from the group matches played
- Lowest total number of goals-allowed from the group matches played among the teams in question
- The highest total of goals scored from the group matches played among the teams in question
If more than 2 teams need to be ranked, after ranking a first team with art. 8.21, this process is restarted with the remaining teams, until classifying all teams. If this procedure doesn’t lead to a decision after completion of all matches, a draw must decide the ranking.
The draw must be carried out by the CERILH, if possible in the presence of at least one (1) representative of each Federation concerned.
