      <image:title>Rules of play - League Rules</image:title>
      <image:caption>Definitions The Marin Soccer League (the League) is divided into four divisions as follows: Over 30 (O30) Over 48 (O48) Over 58 (O58) The Division will be managed by the Division Director. The Division Director may include a Division Chairman and a Referee Coordinator and a representative from each team in the division, typically the Team Manager. A Division Meeting of all participating teams will be held prior to each new season under the direction of the Division Manager. At this meeting the Team Managers will organize the details of the new season, create a game schedule, and approve rules changes if applicable to that division, if appropriate. The Division Directors may define other functions and responsibilities (e.g., Secretary, Scorekeeper, Field Coordinator) as the division grows, and assign them as necessary to volunteer individuals or to existing members 1. Rules of Play A. Current FIFA rules of play shall be in effect except as specifically stated otherwise in these Rules of play, including the following: Unlimited substitutions. A player receiving a yellow card in the O30, O48, and O58 divisions shall be substituted for a period of 5 minutes minimum. Slide tackles are NOT permitted in the O30, O48, and O58 divisions and will result in an indirect free kick and a yellow card. The referee may perceive a slide tackle within or outside of the penalty area and determine a DOGSO scenario and therefore may issue a red card. Going to ground to play the ball is otherwise permitted assuming the player is not endangering another player. This rule is left to the interpretation of the referee. B. The playing seasons will begin on the dates specified by the Division Directors. C. The League website shall be the official repository of all schedules and standings. 2. Age A. In the Over 30, Over 48, and O58 divisions, all players must be at least 30 years of age, 48 years of age, or 58 years of age, respectively, by December 31 of the current year in which the League season ends, with the exception defined in B, below. B. In the O48 division, a team may have a goalkeeper who is at least 45 years of age. C. Every player must have a valid picture ID at every game. This should be a US Driver’s License, Immigration Card, or Passport. D. Team Managers may question the age of any opposing player at any time. If proper ID of a questioned player is not presented to the requesting Team Manager, the player cannot continue to play in that game. If it is determined that a Team has violated this rule after the game, the opposing team shall be awarded a win with a score of 3:0. E. Any player found using a false ID to make himself eligible to play in the division will be suspended indefinitely from playing in the League. Any Team Manager that allows or in any way aids an ineligible player to play will be suspended indefinitely from the League. 3. Registration A. Division Directors shall be the final authority on all matters concerning the eligibility of teams that fail to meet the registration requirements. B. All teams must submit their registration fee prior to the start of the new season or as agreed to by the League Treasurer. C. New teams desiring to join the League must submit an application in advance of the next playing season in the form of a check for registration for the new season (fee amount determined by Division Directors). 4. Rosters A. All teams shall maintain their rosters on CSAN. B. Teams using ineligible players will forfeit all games those players have played in, including the game in which the player is discovered. C. Team Managers will print their game card rosters from the website and bring the printed roster to the game. Before the start of the game, the Team Manager must enter shirt numbers on the roster and present the roster player pass cards to the officials. D. Maximum number of players per team shall be defined by Division Directors and controlled on the website. E. Only players on the official team roster will be allowed to play with exceptions as follows: Guest Player Rule (this only applies to the O48 division). If a team is short players, guest players may be included to create a total of no more than 11 players, but only with the approval of the opposing Team Manager and subsequent notification to the referee by the opposing Team Manager. Any rostered player who arrives late will take the place of a guest player for the remainder of the game. All guest players must be registered with CSAN. All guest players must conform to age restrictions as described in section 2, above. F.  Transfer windows: In order to support league parity and bottom-half teams, players may only transfer to another team in-between seasons and may not transfer to another team once a season has started (beginning the first match day). In extraordinary circumstances, a player may transfer to a new team during a season if a non-conflicted Division Director approves the transfer after understanding the context and viewpoints of team managers involved. If no such Division Director exists (i.e., everyone somehow has a conflict), the decision will go to the highest ranking board member without a conflict. 5. Uniforms and Equipment A. Equipment shall consist of a uniform shirt with a clearly legible and unique number, shorts, socks, shin guards, and shoes meeting FIFA requirements. B. A regulation #5 game ball must be provided by both teams. C. Player’s numbers must match the numbers on the team Roster, and any exceptions must be disclosed to the referee and the opposing Team Manager prior to the start of the game. D. A goal keeper playing on the field must wear a shirt that differs in color from the team shirts of either team. E. In the event of a similar color uniform, the home team (listed first in the schedule) must use alternate shirts. In such a case, numbers are not required. 6. Officials A. A referee will be assigned by the League Referee Coordinator. B. If the referee does not show up, the two teams can appoint a player or spectator to referee the game. If the teams cannot agree on a substitute referee, then the game shall be rescheduled. C. The referee shall be the official time-keeper. 7. Number of Players A. A minimum of seven (7) players must be on the field at the start of the game to constitute a legal game. A team that falls below the minimum during a game as a result of ejections will forfeit the game. 8. Prior to Games A. Prior to each game, the referee will confirm that each player is on the official roster and eligible to play by verifying the player pass. A player not on the official roster is ineligible to play. Division Directors shall have the authority to question the identity and age of any player in their division and suspend from play any player whose identity or age is in question until the next Division Director’s meeting or until the Division Director has ascertained the true age and identity of the player. B. Prior to the start of each regular season game, each manager shall pay the referees their fee. Currently the referees’ fee is $80 per team. Each manager pays $40 for the Center Referee and $40 each for the two assigned Assistant Referees.  In the unlikely event that only two referees are assigned/available, the fee will be $70 per team. 9. Game Time and Place A. O30 games shall be played on Saturdays and occasionally Sundays when necessary; O58 games shall be played on Saturdays; and O48 games on Sundays, at the specific times indicated in the schedule. B. Teams must be present on the field of play 15 minutes prior to the scheduled kickoff, to allow the referee to check the roster and player passes, and if necessary, player identifications. C. If a team does not have all its players present at kick-off time, the game will be started if at least seven (7) players from that team are present. If there are fewer than seven players from either team present at the defined kick-off time, the game will be delayed by 10 minutes. If at that time there are still fewer than seven players for one or both teams, the game will be recorded as a forfeit loss to the team (or teams) with fewer than seven players. If the opposition has a sufficient number of players, they will be awarded a forfeit win. D. The fields are scheduled by the Field Coordinator. The games will take place at the times specified in the schedule. If a game does not start on time, the referee may reduce the playing time accordingly. E. If bad weather causes a game to be postponed, it will be replayed at the end of the current season. The turf fields are usually playable in all weather conditions. 10. Playing Periods A. Normal playing periods will consist of two 45 minute halves (40 minute halves for Over 50 Division). B. No overtime will be played in a regular season game. C. All games shall be completed as scheduled, except that in the event a game is called because of inclement weather or other hazards (i.e. a broken crossbar), the game will: 1. Be replayed entirely if at least 45 minutes remain to be played. 2. If 15 minutes or more remain to be played, the amount of time remaining will be played as an addendum to the next game between the two teams involved. If this is the last scheduled game between the two teams, the result shall stand. 3. If fewer than 15 minutes remain, the result of the game at termination shall stand. 11. Substitutions A. Unlimited substitutions are allowed with the consent of the referee at the following times: 1. Goal kick; 2. Corner kick; 2. Goal scored; 3. Half-time; 4. On free kicks; 5. On throw-ins; 6. When the ball is stopped for injury and the injured player is substituted, the other team can substitute. 12. Cautions, Ejections &amp; Conduct A. Players in the O30, O48, and O58 divisions who receive a cautionary yellow card will be asked to sit out for five (5) minutes. Two (2) yellow cards in a game will automatically count as a red card with a one (1) game suspension.   B. Players who receive a red card will be ejected from the game in which the infraction occurs, and at a minimum cannot play in any league game, regardless of division, until after their rostered team’s next league game. Players who receive a second red card during the same season will be ejected from the game in which the infraction occurs, and at a minimum cannot play in any league game, regardless of division, until after their rostered team’s next two (2) league games. Players receiving three (3) red cards during the same season, are automatically suspended from all league games, regardless of division, for the rest of that division’s season and are subject to further action by the Disciplinary Committee. If ejected in the last game of the season for the division in which the third red card was given, the suspension shall be served in that division’s following season or play-offs. The recipient of the red card shall also be prohibited from playing in any league games in any other division, until his suspension period has been completed. By reason of suspension, the team for which he illegally plays shall forfeit that game. Changing teams will not void the suspension(s), C. Ejected players are automatically required to leave the field and the vicinity of the playing area, unless the referee and the opposing Team Manager both agree to allow the ejected player to remain at the field. If an ejected player refuses to vacate the field and its vicinity, unless instructed otherwise by the referee, or causes dissent, the referee shall stop the game and that player’s team shall forfeit the game. In this case, the ejected player will be subject to disciplinary action by the Division Directors. D. Any player verbally or physically abusing or attempting to physically abuse another player, referee or spectator and/or his property will be dealt with severely, up to and including ejection from the League.  The Disciplinary Committee will address these events on a case-by-case basis and determine appropriate action. Potential punishment:   Flagrant foul with intent to injure opposing player, as reported by the referee – three (3) games Abusing any of the officiating crew verbally – three (3) games Striking or attempting to strike opposing player – eight (8) games These guidelines are merely examples of the punishment to be handed down and the League reserves the right to administer punishment depending on the nature of the event. E. If a player plays in a league game, regardless of division, in which he is ineligible by reason of suspension, the team for which he illegally plays shall forfeit the game. The recipient shall also be prohibited from playing in any other division, until his suspension period has been completed. Changing teams will not void the suspension. F. A forfeited game will not count towards completion of a suspended player’s period of suspension. G. All members of the team are expected to conduct themselves in a manner befitting the League. It is the Team Manager’s/Coach's responsibility to control his players and spectators. H. No alcoholic beverages are permitted before or during any league game.

      <image:title>In memoriam - Enrique Allen</image:title>
      <image:caption>1986-2024 It is with a heavy heart that I share that Enrique Allen passed away this week after a crushing battle with cancer. Enrique was a force of nature. A man who infused all those around him with joy, vitality, and positivity. If you were lucky enough to be in his orbit, he left an indelible impression. We met seventeen years ago as young designers while I was at Facebook. Enrique was one of the first people to be interested in the idea of elevating design in the startup ecosystem. He spoke about it to anyone who would listen and we became quick friends. Over the years we continued to explore the idea when finally, in 2012, we began to spend nights and weekends collaborating on it. We'd sit together, sticky notes and sharpies in hand, dreaming of how we might influence venture capital to care about design. Our belief was that companies and founders who cared about design would not only outperform their peers, but would better serve people and the planet while doing so. It was this win-win dynamic, this mutual benefit that we believed in so deeply and knew we could execute against if given a chance. While many wanted nothing to do with a fund managed by two designers, a select few believed. They helped us sow the seeds. Over the past 10 years and across 3 funds we've now backed over 140 founders building some of the most iconic, design-forward companies in Silicon Valley. This dream that started over a decade ago, this idea that Enrique and I poured our hearts and souls into building, is now a reality. But if you knew Enrique, you knew his ambition was boundless. What other industries can we bring great design to? How might we get more designers to become investors? How might we use design + AI to better serve humanity? Dreams beget dreams beget dreams. Enrique and I designed this firm to be resilient and collaborative. The outpouring of support and love over the last few weeks leave me with two clear truths: 1) We will find our way through this with the collective strength of our community of founders, investors and colleagues and 2) We will carry on Enrique's legacy in everything we do going forward. The coming months will be particularly difficult. We will grieve. We will reflect. We will show up for his family and celebrate a life well lived. And then we will move forward, with greater purpose and focus to build a better world for our children, Enrique's everlasting presence the wind at our backs.</image:caption>

      <image:title>In memoriam - March 25, 1951 - July 8, 2024</image:title>
      <image:caption>In the Middle Ages, knights wore armor known as “greaves” on their shins to protect themselves in combat. Today, Marin Soccer League players no longer have to wear shin guards on both the front and back of their shins: long-time Real Marin SC defender Karel Pleskot has moved on to the Heaven Eleven football club, following a short battle with stomach cancer. He was 73 when he passed. A native of Prague –capital of the Czech Republic—he left his Bohemian roots and came to the U.S., arriving first in Georgia, in the 1980s. A decade later he moved to the San Francisco Bay Area, pursuing business opportunities initially in the brokerage and investment field, and later in event and entertainment planning. Karel and his partner, Francesca Valdez, have been proprietors of the storied Broadway Studio, a party venue, nightclub and music theater in North Beach, on the edge of San Francisco’s Financial District, since 1995. (Under a succession of owners, their Mission-style building, built in 1919, over the years has hosted performers ranging from Louis Armstrong to Robin Williams; from Blondie to Metallica; from The Police to Whoopi Goldberg.) Czech people are generally polite, avoid confrontation, and aren’t overtly direct in conversations. Karel possessed those qualities, along with an engaging smile, and a wry, sardonic sense of humor. When you met him, you couldn’t help but like him. An athlete in his youth –excelling in both rowing and soccer—Karel achieved real prominence in the soccer world during weekend games with Real Marin SC, based in San Rafael. On the soccer field with Real Marin, Karel was a defensive stalwart. He was the last person opponents needed to get past to try to score a goal. Few succeeded (and usually received a bruising tackle as a souvenir of the experience.) On the soccer field, Karel was in command. During games he was calm, focused, determined and a rock-solid team-mate. In competition, he ate midfielders for a snack, and forwards for dinner. With his passing from the scene, players on Marin County soccer fields from Hall Middle School to McInnis Park, from Corte Madera Town Park to Piper Park, can now breathe a sigh of relief. Karel never went down without a fight: whether it was on the soccer field, in his business undertakings and especially in his hard-fought struggle with cancer. He was philosophic about life, and about soccer. He might say something like this: “Guys, guys, guys! Soccer is a match made in heaven (great news for you and me!) In heaven the fields are smooth and perfect. Players kick off for free. Referees there are fair and rarely whistle you for a foul! (But when God raises his eyebrows at a contested play, nobody argues the call.) New players arrive all the time, and there’s always a good team to play on. You kick off as soon as you can get your boots on. And you’re cheered on by family, team-mates and friends. Soccer’s really a blast in Heaven, and after the first whistle, play never ends. I want you to know: I’m OK!”</image:caption>

      <image:title>In memoriam - April 25, 1948 - December 26, 2023</image:title>
      <image:caption>Al passed away suddenly on December 16, 2023 at the age of 75. Alfonso (Al) Bongio was born in the town of Morbegno, Italy on April 25, 1948. He immigrated to San Rafael, Calif., in the Fall of 1956 with his parents, Mario and Carla Bongio and two siblings, Carlo and Maria. Al was a graduate of San Rafael High School and excelled in baseball starting in little league through high school. He also attended San Francisco State College. He was proud to serve in the United States Marine Corps for several years. He worked as a Sales Representative for several food distributors and received several awards for Salesman of the year before retiring at an early age. Al enjoyed mushroom hunting with his father and brother, Carlo in Marin and Sonoma County. He also loved to go searching for Abalone with his father and brother along the rugged Sonoma County coastline, as well as clam digging at Hearts Desire Beach in Tomales Bay. Al was a huge opera fan and had an amazing voice and his friends loved to hear him belt out My Way and other Sinatra and Tony Bennett songs. Al loved the game of Soccer and played in several leagues. His favorite position was goalie. He loved watching the San Francisco Giants play ball as well as the San Francisco 49ers. He also loved watching the World Cup of Soccer and of course hoping that Italy would win the cup. Most of all, Al loved his native country of Italy and traveled to Italy many times over the years to visit and stay with his relatives. He enjoyed being a member of Club Italia a social club based in Marin County. Al is survived by his wife of 52 years, Sharon of San Rafael; his brother, Carlo and his wife, Lynn of Brookings Oregon; his nephew, Anton Bongio Karrman of Texas; and his sister, Maria; and Sharon's sister, Loreen McKinney her daughter, Dawn; and several nieces and nephews as well as numerous relatives in Italy. He will be greatly missed.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Our friend Kerry Farley just lost his dad Leon Farley, who was a long-time member of the Marin Academicals of the Mayflower Soccer League and introduced Kerry to the game fifty-three long years ago (the  predecessor to the Marin Soccer League). Leon Alex Trevor Farley: May 6, 1935 – January 6, 2022 Leon Farley of Greenbrae died peacefully at home on January 6, with Karen Metz, his wife, by his side.  Leon loved words. And a proper lunch.  Anything UCLA. Premier League Soccer. A cold beer after a long tennis match. He was game to travel, but adored his home and community.  He cherished his work and the friends he made. He became a lover of dogs, his two and those he met on the path.  Above all, he loved his family.  His was a life well-lived and well-loved.</image:caption>
