Periods of Play The match lasts two equal periods of times as defined per Age Group. Any agreement to alter the periods of play (for example to reduce each half because of insufficient light) must be made before the start of play and must comply with competition rules. Half-Time Interval Players are entitled to an interval at half-time. The half-time interval must not exceed 10 minutes. The duration of the half-time interval may be altered only with the consent of the referee. Allowance for Time Lost There is no allowance for time lost in Junior Football. Penalty Kick If a penalty kick has to be taken or retaken, the duration of either half is extended until the penalty kick is completed. Abandoned Match An abandoned match is replayed unless the competition rules provide otherwise. |
