Learn the Laws of the Game: Offside Decisions

Snap Soccer does not allow mixed association guest players based on standards from major youth soccer sanctioning bodies.  

 

This means that US Club Soccer teams may only take guest players registered under US Club Soccer, and USYS teams may only take guest players registered with properly stamped USYS player pass cards. 

 

Mixed rosters with player passes from different organizations will not be accepted at any Snap Soccer event. 

 

All guest players are expected to have a proper loan form even if it is not requested by event staff. Please see below. 

 

Resources 

  • US Club Guest Player Loan Form 
  • USYS Guest Player Form – please contact your state association (ASA, LSA, FYSA, etc.) 

 

Always refer to the Event Rules to review Guest Player requirements or limitations. 

 

Every event we hear from coaches, players, and parents that are upset about an offsides call or lack of a call in their game. It’s a hard call to make sometimes and we see soccer referees from the world cup level who can get it wrong sometimes. Here is a great video that US Soccer just put out that goes over the rule in great detail!
