# Outdoor soccer captains' guide

We know how much work it is to captain a team, so we want to make it as easy as possible for you to get the job done. This guide will show you the ins and outs.

### Rules to note

* **Gender rules:** Teams must have at least 2 players of the opposite gender on the field, or the game will be forfeited.
* **Four *****roster***** players must be present at game time,** or the game will be forfeited. The coordinator will check the roster to confirm attendance. Note: your roster can include occasional players or subs; they just need to [sign the waiver](https://airtable.com/shrlMKBsxQKANMqoB).

### Rainout **P**olicy

Outdoor leagues run rain or shine unless there is standing water, or thunder and lightning. Play Sask will inform captains of cancellations due to extreme weather two hours before the start of the game. The coordinator can end games at any time at their discretion.
