*While all games are scheduled to kick 15 minutes after the conclusion of the previous game whether the schedule is running early or late, there is one scenario in which a kick would be held. If the early games go quickly and the “1:30” game ends prior to 3:22 (15 minutes before a 3:37 kick), the kick for this game would be held until 3:37 to allow CSN to get off the air and WSBK to get on. That is the only scenario in which a game would not kick 15 minutes after the end of the previous game.

·         Each team will have three time-outs per half.

·         Halftime will be 13 minutes - Teams are required to be on the field and ready to play with 2 minutes and 30 seconds left on the clock as the 2nd half will kick-off when the clock hits zero.

·         There will be a total of 15 minutes between games (running time). Game will start when clock hits zero. Teams will take the field at 10-minute mark on countdown. Not prior to then.
