Arizona Sports League

Does the league provide insurance?

No, the league does not have insurance for the players. We only have liability insurance for the municipalities that we play in. If you need insurance then we can recommend some providers that have reasonable short term coverage.

What are the age restrictions for the league?

We are primarily an adult league, but we do have a few youth activities as well.

How do I become a free agent?

The first step is to register with the league and indicate what sports you are interested in playing during registration. We will send out notifications for upcoming leagues to those that register, but it’s also beneficial to indicate you are wanting to become a free agent for a particular league by emailing the league coordinator in charge. Don’t worry, if you send it to the wrong person it will get routed correctly.

If I want to form a team will the league help in recruiting free agents?

Yes, if you have a core group of players then we’ll help augment your team with free agents. Just touch base with the league first and let us know how many players you might need.

How does the league determine what fields they will play at?

The league works with the city to try and find the fields that are convenient for the players, in good condition, and available. At times the city only allocates certain fields so we have to take what they give us.

02

Mens & Coed Soccer

How many players per side?

We run with standard 11 players on each side. We do not limit substitutions and the roster size can be up to 25 players.

In the co-ed leagues, how many girls are needed to play?

In our co-ed leagues we require five girls playing at all times. One girl can be in the goal and four on the field or all five in the field. If you do not have five girls then you will need to play short. There are no minimum requirements for boys, you can field a team of all girls if you want.

Are the games full length?

Yes, we try to make each half 45 minutes long, or 90 minutes per game. At times the halves get truncated due to time constraints. (Lack of lights for night games)

How do I become a soccer free agent?

We have a post on how to join the league, give it a quick look over and complete the form on the bottom.

Is slide tackling allowed?

In some of our leagues we allow for slide tackling, but not all. Generally speaking the Friday coed, Saturday O35 do  not allow it and the Saturday Open and Sunday leagues do.  Please check with the league coordinator.

How many referees are used?

We run with a full referee crew, two assistance referees and the head referee.

What is the ratio between boys and girls on the field?

Our co-ed leagues require five girls on the field at all times. One of the girls can play as a goalie requiring only four on the field. At no time will there be a total of six boys playing. If a team only has four girls then the team will have to play short a player. There is a three girl requirement to play. There is no minimum number of boys to play, you can play with an entire girl team.

How many referees are used?

Generally speaking our night games have dual referees and the day league uses a full crew. At times we do have a full crew for the night time games.

I received a red card, do I need to pay a fine?

At times we will implement a fine for red cards. Check with your league coordinator.

03

Tri-Sport Tournament

What is the Tri-Sport Tournament?

A team consists of no less than 12 players and no more than 18 with a minimum of 4 female players.

I want to play but don’t have a team, can I still join?

Yes, you can! Just get registered as a Free Agent. Teams are always looking Free Agent players to fill their rosters. And Free Agent teams are often created. You can be placed per your preference. Once registered as a Free Agent you will be assigned to a team just before Kick-Off. Free Agent Team Assignments will be included in the Week #1 email.

When will  team schedules be out?

Team schedule will be emailed and/or posted weekly. Week #1 schedules will be included in the Week #1 email and sent out just before Kick-Off. Certain leagues nights may or may not provide a full season schedule and only offer a schedule weekly.

How old do I need to be to play?

Adults age 18+ are eligible to play.

Can you drink in this league?

Many of our leagues nights have Beer Permits and drinking is allowed. You must be 21+ to drink. Players under 21 are required to be at least 18 and will be the “ward’ of their team captain. Should a player under the age of 21 be found consuming alcohol the player will be banned from the league and the team suspended pending return authorization.

Does the Team fee cover all costs or are there additional fees?

The Team Fee covers registration for up to 18 players. There are no additional fees. The registration fee covers each players registration, a custom team shirt and drink ticket at the end of the season party. Additional players over the allotted 18 can be added for a $25 fee per player.

Does the league provide medical coverage?
