As a relatively new referee I have my first JPL game and just want to understand the restart of each quarter procedure as I have conflicting responses. Should the 2nd quarter restart with the team that won the toss and chose to kick off as still first half? Or does the 2nd and 4th quarters restart from a break in play eg from a thrown in? Or something else?
JPL quarter restarts
- Thread starter machra
- Start date
As far as I am aware, there is no provision made by the FA for quarterly restarts. The only direct FA guidance I am aware of regards 'quarters' relates to 'mini soccer'.
Law 7 generalises a game being of two equal halves.
The JPL often use this quarterly stoppage period and are in many ways a law unto themselves. I can't offer any specific advice, suggest looking at their league rules. However, I would suggest a ceremonial KO, rather than throw in, goal kick etc..
Other than that, speak to coaches prior to ko..
Perhaps someone else may be able to offer more specific advice.

That varies based on age groups but always the kick off restart.
