PRE-EVENT

1. EMERGENCY ACTION PLAN (OSAA Handbook, Executive Board Policies) (December 2015)http://www.anyonecansavealife.org

Each full member school shall have an Emergency Action Plan (EAP) in place for responding to life-threatening emergencies in after-school practices and events. Schools are strongly encouraged to utilize the “Anyone Can Save a Life” program, a free, turnkey solution that covers all medical emergencies.

2. EVENT MANAGEMENT CHECKLIST: This communication is vital to a successful contest and should take place as soon as the teams are finalized. Each host school should send a completed Event Management Checklist and a diagram of the seating plan to potential opponents.

3. GAME TIMES: Schools need to log on to the OSAA website to submit the time of their game for each playoff round prior to the final site. A location for the game should only be added when the game isn’t being played at the host school’s campus. Game times are by mutual agreement of both schools participating. If schools cannot mutually agree, the OSAA will make the final decision.

4. OFFICIALS:

A. First Round: The host school is to obtain one referee and two assistant referees from the association that services its home games. OSAA will pay the referee and assistant referees through each commissioner. See OSAA Handbook, Executive Board Policy, Officials – Host School Responsibilities for additional information.

B. Second Round through Semifinals: One referee and two assistant referees will be assigned and paid by OSAA through the commissioner. Officials have been instructed to contact the host school AD to reconfirm game times and locations prior to the day of the contest. A fourth official will be assigned starting with the quarterfinals.

5. STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS - HOME TEAM DESIGNATION (OSAA Handbook, Executive Board Policies) (Revised Fall 2018)

7. PA SCRIPT: Please ensure that your announcer has a copy of the attached PA script and reads these announcements. Included is the OSAA’s required pre-contest PA announcement, along with additional sportsmanship and sponsor announcements to be read throughout the contest. The script includes information in the case of a need for overtime and penalty kicks.

8. PROGRAMS: The host school has the right to produce a roster sheet / game program through the semifinals. These may be handed out or sold by the host school. Team rosters can be printed from the OSAA website by clicking on a school’s team page for that sport. Go to Soccer, then Teams & Leagues and click on the school’s name to find their team page.

9. TICKET BOOTH SIGNS: There are five signs attached, Ticket Prices (1st Round – Semifinals), OSAA Live Mobile App, Pass Gate, GoFan Online Tickets, and Spectator Conduct. Please ensure that these signs are posted at your gates prior to each state championship game.

11. STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS – ADOPTED BALL (OSAA Handbook, Executive Board Policies) (Fall 2010)

The OSAA shall require that the officially adopted ball for that sport be used in all state championship contests, first round through final sites.

A. State Championship Contests at Home Sites.

1) Team sports (other than football).

a) Procedure. Officials shall confirm that the game balls provided by the home team are the officially adopted balls (Wilson NCAA Forte Fybrid II). If the home team does not have the officially adopted ball, officials shall inquire if the visiting team has the officially adopted ball and use them if they are available. If neither team has the officially adopted ball, the contest shall be played, and officials shall report the violation by the host school to the OSAA.

b) Penalty. If no officially adopted balls are available for use at an OSAA state championship contest, the host school shall be subject to fines, forfeiture and/or other penalties as determined by the OSAA Executive Board.

B. State Championship Contests Administered by OSAA Staff. Officially adopted balls (Wilson NCAA Forte Fybrid II) shall be provided by OSAA staff administering the contests.

12. FIELD SET-UP: Both teams’ benches should be placed on the same side of the field. Rain shelters, if available, shall be provided for both teams or neither team.

13. STADIUM CLOCK: A stadium clock is not required, but if it is used, it shall be the official time for the contest. If the stadium clock is used, a buzzer or horn must be provided to indicate when tie has expired. If your stadium clock does not include a working buzzer or horn, the clock operator should use an air horn to indicate when time has expired. For additional information, see “Clock Operator Instructions” in this packet.

14. BALL HOLDERS: Host schools shall provide at least two ball holders.

15. STATE CHAMPIONSHIP - PRE-CONTEST PUBLIC PRAYER (OSAA Handbook, Executive Board Policies) (Fall 2012)

All playoff contests beyond the regular season cutoff date are OSAA sponsored events. It has been legally established that the OSAA is a state actor, and is subject to the same requirements as a governmental agency with respect to compliance with the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment of the United States Constitution. Under rulings of both Federal and State Courts, a pre-contest public prayer at any OSAA sponsored event is a violation of both federal and state constitutions regardless of where the game is played and which schools are participating. Therefore, offering a pre-contest public prayer over a public-address system at any OSAA sponsored interscholastic event is prohibited.

16. STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS – SUPPORT GROUP POLICIES (OSAA Handbook, Executive Board Policies) (Revised Fall 2017)

Following are the support group policies as adopted by the Executive Board regarding state championships:

A. Admission. Members of support groups shall be given complimentary admission from game management for contests during which their school is participating. Members shall enter the facility in uniform as a group and must be accompanied by their coach/director for verification.

1) Cheerleading. The number of cheerleaders permitted is limited to members of the varsity cheer team for that sport season. Venue space, as determined by game management, may limit the number of cheerleaders able to cheer on the sideline. Squad size for routines performed prior to the contest, during timeouts and for halftime entertainment may exceed the venue sideline limit so long as the additional members return to the stands when the contest resumes.

G:\Tickets\Tournaments\Event Management Info\Soccer\scemi.doc Page 3 of 5

B. Pep Band Expectations. The purpose of performances by pep bands at athletic events is to entertain, promote school spirit and support cheerleaders in providing positive crowd participation activities. All members of the pep band are expected to exhibit the highest standards of good sportsmanship.

1) Musical selections including rhythmic percussion cadences in support of cheerleaders may be performed only during the following times:

a) Prior to the game.

b) During time outs.

c) Between quarters or at halftime.

e) Exceptions:

(1) Rhythmic percussion cadences in support of cheerleaders may be performed during play at outdoor venues only.

(2) No musical selections may be performed during injury time outs.

2) Amplified instruments are permitted at basketball contests unless the State Championship Director determines that space availability or distance to an electrical outlet precludes its use. The State Championship Director has the authority to control the volume of any amplified instrument.

3) If two pep bands are playing at an athletic contest, the groups shall alternate performances and split the halftime. In football, the performance time after a touchdown or point after goes to the band representing the school that has scored regardless of which band performed last. The directors of the two groups shall meet prior to the contest to confirm how the time will be shared.

C. Halftime Entertainment. The following halftime procedures shall be utilized:

1) Basketball.

a) Schools participating in the Basketball State Championships will be given first choice to entertain during halftime intermission of all basketball games. Other schools will be considered in order of application received. It shall be understood that schools not participating in the state championships shall not bring a band.

b) All halftime entertainment must be approved by the State Championship Director.

b) If special announcer is required for support group performances, previous arrangements shall be made with game management in order to gain access to public address system.

c) Advisor of the support group shall give exact number of seats needed to game management.

d) Total halftime entertainment shall not exceed 14 minutes (See below).

e) The game clock shall be in operation during halftime and shall be started at the conclusion of the first half. Clock will show 15 minutes (See below).

f) The visiting school support group shall perform first (unless the two schools mutually agree otherwise) and shall be prepared to start performance within 30 seconds after end of first half. Performance by visiting school support group may not exceed seven minutes, including time to get on and off the field.

G:\Tickets\Tournaments\Event Management Info\Soccer\scemi.doc Page 4 of 5

h) The field shall be cleared for mandatory three-minute warm-up drills by the two teams.

i) Delaying the start of the second half shall be subject to reprimands and/or penalties by the Executive Board.

j) If game management wishes to extend the halftime entertainment per the National Federation Rules Book, two minutes shall be added to each performance (total time of 18 minutes instead of 14 minutes) and clock will show 20 minutes at start of halftime.

SOCCER STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS

SOCCER TIEBREAKER PROCEDURES

G:\Soccer\Forms\tiebreakerprocedures.doc

If a contest is tied at the end of regulation time, the following procedure shall be used to determine the winner:

The referee shall instruct both teams to return to their respective team and coaching area. There will be five minutes during which both teams may confer with their coaches, and the head referee shall instruct both teams as to the proper procedure.

1. There shall be two full 10-minute overtime periods – not sudden victory:

A. A coin toss shall be held as in Rule 5-2-2(d)(3).

B. There shall be a two-minute break in-between overtime periods.

2. If the score still remains tied, all coaches, officials and team captains shall assemble at midfield to review the procedure as outlined below:

A. The head referee shall choose the goal at which all of the penalty kicks shall be taken.

B. Each coach shall select any five players on their roster who have not been disqualified to take the penalty kicks. Any player on the roster is eligible and they do not have to be on the field at the end of overtime or even have played in the game.

C. A coin toss shall be conducted. The team winning the toss shall have the choice of kicking first or second.

D. Teams will alternate kickers. There is no follow-up kick.

E. The defending team may change the goalkeeper prior to each penalty kick.

F. Following five kicks for each team, the team scoring the greatest number of goals on these kicks shall be declared the winner. If, before both teams have taken five kicks, one has scored more goals than the other could score even if it were to complete its five kicks, no more kicks are taken.

G. Add one goal to the winning team score and credit the team with a victory. An asterisk (*) may be placed by the team advancing to indicate the advancement was the result of a tiebreaker system.

3. If the score remains tied after each team has had five penalty kicks:

A. Each coach shall select five players other than the first five who already have kicked to take the penalty kicks in a sudden victory situation, wherein if one team scores and the other team does not score, the game is ended without more kicks being taken.

B. If the score still remains tied, continue the sudden victory penalty kicks with the coaches selecting any five players from their team to take the next set of alternating penalty kicks. If a tie remains, repeat 3a and 3b until there is a winner.

4. NFHS tournament progression rules shall apply in the event a player is cautioned during the penalty tiebreaker.

5. During the taking of penalty kicks, all eligible players from both teams (not including any player disqualified from the game) and their coaches, other than the goalkeeper from each team who is defending the opponents’ kicks, shall be in the center circle of the field.

6. If a team has fewer than 10 players available to participate in the tiebreaker, all available players for that team shall take kicks, as required, until all players have done so. If it is necessary for players to take a second kick (or more,) they may do so in any order. The FIFA “reduce to equate” principle does not apply in NFHS tiebreakers.

SOCCER STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS  

CLOCK OPERATOR INSTRUCTIONS 

G:\Soccer\Forms\clockopinst.doc 

The home school may use a “visible timing device,” also known as the stadium clock, to keep the time in soccer.  The clock operator is the official timer.  The clock operator should note the following information: 

High school soccer games have two halves of 40 minutes each.  Halftime is 10 minutes.  The clock should be set to count down.  Many schools will run the clock during warm‐ups before the game, counting down to either kickoff or the introduction of the teams and anthem.  The pre‐game count down is strictly at the discretion of the home school, however. 

If overtime is to be played in case of a tie, there is five minutes allowed between the end of regulation and the start of overtime.  Overtime is two 10‐minute periods, with two minutes between overtime periods.  Once overtime begins, the entire 20 minutes will be played, i.e. there is no “sudden death,” “golden goal,” or “silver goal.” 

The clock starts when the ball is first kicked, not when the referee whistles for the start.  The clock is stopped for goals, yellow or red cards, penalty kicks, injuries and any other time that the referees signal for the clock to be stopped. 

The referee should signal for the time to be stopped with a whistle and crossing his/her wrists over their head.  Therefore, any time you hear the referee blow the whistle, you should look at the referee to see if they are also signaling to stop the time.  Sometimes, referees forget to do this.  If you see that a goal has clearly been scored, the referee is giving a yellow or red card, the referee is signaling for a penalty kick or that play has been stopped for an injury, please stop the clock.  Restart the clock when the ball is kicked or thrown back into play.   

It is very important that you stop and start the clock at the correct times.  The time you keep is the official time for the contest.  The referee is also running a back up watch.  If the referee feels that the clock was not stopped or started properly, he or she may ask you to reset the clock.  In the event of a power failure, get the correct time from the referee after power is restored, during a stoppage in play. 

If you have a public address system available, the clock operator or announcer should use the public address system to count down the last 10 seconds of each half. 

Most clocks have a horn, buzzer or siren that sounds at zero.  If yours does not, you should use an air horn to indicate zero at the end of the verbal countdown.

OVERTIME AND PENALTY KICK SCRIPT

READ IN CASE OF A TIE AT THE END OF REGULATION We will now have a five minute break as the teams prepare for overtime. Overtime will consist of two 10-minute periods. This is not a sudden victory or golden goal situation; both 10-minute periods will be played regardless of any scoring. There will be a two-minute break between periods. If the score is still tied at the end of the second overtime, the team that advances will then be determined by kicks from the penalty mark.

READ IN CASE OF A TIE AT THE END OF OVERTIME Officials, coaches and team captains will now gather at midfield to prepare for kicks from the penalty mark. The team that wins the coin toss can choose to kick first or second. Teams will alternate with each team getting five kicks. Following the five kicks, the team with more goals will advance to the next round of the state championships. If the score remains tied after the first five kicks, the kicks will continue in a sudden victory situation. At this point, if one team scores and the other does not, the game will end.

SPORTSMANSHIP PUBLIC ADDRESS ANNOUNCEMENTS

The following PAs are meant to be used if the situations arises. The OSAA is committed to providing a safe and inclusive environment.

Announcement during an early break in the game: As we welcome (name of school) for tonight’s/today’s game, we remind you that interscholastic events are an extension of the classroom. Please, let your good sportsmanship show throughout the contest. Let’s make our visitors feel welcome and give our officials the respect they deserve for doing a difficult job. Speak out if you see inappropriate behavior and immediately notify event management staff. We all share responsibility for good sportsmanship. Announcement for use during breaks in the game: Each school is proud of their team, school spirit, tradition and sportsmanship. The OSAA and the participating schools request your support in creating a respectful environment to make this contest more enjoyable for all involved. We encourage you to model good sportsmanship while positively supporting your team. It’s all about respect. Respect the game; respect others; respect yourself – that’s sportsmanship. Announcement for use during breaks in the game: Ethics, integrity and respect are some of the educational lessons learned in athletics. Providing an educational environment is critical to the success of high school athletics and activity programs. An important part of that environment is planning for good sportsmanship. Without good sportsmanship, the lessons lose their value. Remember that when you attend an interscholastic contest you are really inside a classroom where good sportsmanship receives the highest grade. Announcement when the crowd is acting up: Admission to an interscholastic event is a privilege, and with that privilege comes responsibility—responsibility to conduct oneself in a manner where the game is enjoyable for other fans and participants. Parents, fans and people in the community all set an example for our students. Everyone is asked to take personal responsibility for keeping this game at a high level of good sportsmanship. Speak out if you see inappropriate behavior and immediately notify event management staff. Announcement for use during breaks near the end of the game: The score of any athletic event is generally forgotten over time, but the actions of participants, coaches and spectators are remembered. We ask that all spectators continue to display good sportsmanship even after this contest is over. Remember, good sports are all winners in the end.
