Fair Play Point Guidelines

From the 2010-2011 Minnesota Hockey Handbook, pgs 30-31:

P. Fair Play

1. All leagues administered by MH shall use Fair Play rules to determine league standings. League standings will be determined using the following Fair Play point system: Win = 2 points, Tie = 1 point, Loss = 0 points, plus 1 Fair Play point. In the event that teams played an unequal number of games, the standings can be determined by a percentage of available points in the games played. The following delineates the recommended Fair Play rules. Leagues may amend these rules by submitting changes in writing for approval by the HEP committee prior to the start of league.
 
2. Each team starts the game with their Fair Play point. They will lose their Fair Play point if:
a. Total Fair play penalty minutes criteria is exceeded.
b. Per Conduct Rule XIV.C.2, spectator conduct becomes so abusive that, in referee(s)’ opinion, it is distracting from the game or inciting players, requiring the referee(s) to stop play and request specified individuals leave the arena.
c. Coach is assessed a Game Misconduct or Match Penalty.
d. An off-ice official (timekeeper, scorekeeper, penalty box attendant) provided by one of the teams exhibits conduct that results in the person being removed from their position by the referee(s).
 
3. Fair Play total “equivalent” penalty minute criteria. (Criteria based on 1 hour games for Peewee/12&Under and below and 1½ hour games for Bantam/14&Under and up.)
a. Squirt - 10 minutes                       f. Girls 10&Under - 8 minutes
b. Pee Wee - 12 minutes                g. Girls 12&Under - 10 minutes
c. Bantam - 14 minutes                   h. Girls 14&Under - 12 minutes
d. 16 & Under - 16 minutes              i. Girls 16&Under - 14 minutes
e. Jr. Gold - 16 minutes                    j. Girls 19&Under - 14 minutes
 
4. For the purposes of total Fair Play penalty minutes, the following outlines the penalty “equivalency” minutes associated with each of the following classifications of penalties:
a. Minor or Bench Minor Penalty – 2 Minutes        e. Match Penalty – 10 Minutes
b. Major Penalty – 5 Minutes                                f. Check from Behind (2 & 10) - 12 Minutes
c. Misconduct Penalty – 10 Minutes                     g. Misconduct for no mouth guard - 2 Minutes
d. Game Misconduct Penalty – 10 Minutes           h. Penalty Shot – Equivalent minutes to penalty assessed

DISTRICT 12 GAME CANCELATION POLICY

 

              The HOME TEAM will confirm scheduled games with the visiting team at least 1 week prior to the game time. Notification of cancellation of a District game must be given no later than 24 hours prior to game time; with the exception of the canceling team being physically unable to play (i.e. large number of team members being ill, inclement weather). Inclement weather is defined as when the MN Highway Department declares "no unnecessary travel".

 

            "No Shows" will pay the home team for ice time and $200 to referees. "No Shows" will forfeit district points for that game, allowing the opposing team to add 2 points to their standings. Any team failing to notify the opposing team of a district game cancellation  shall be considered a "No Show".

If the Home team is a “no show” or is not prepared to host the game as scheduled they will pay $200.00 to cover the cost of travel for the visiting team.

 

            It is mandatory that all district  games be played. If a team refuses to play another team, the nonforfeiting team will be awarded 2 points.

 

CANCELLING GAMES. Any team that is a “no show” to a game will be fined $275.00 per cancelled game. The fine will be paid to District 12 within 7 days of the date of the cancelled game. District 12 will direct $200.00 of the fee to the other team/association involved in the cancelled game. The remaining $75.00 will be retained by District 12 as a fine for the cancelled game. In the case of a double forfeit, both teams/associations involved will be fined $75.00.  Exceptions to this would be inclement weather or severe team illness.

No “fair play points” will be awarded to either team for canceled games as no game was played. A fair play point may be awarded to a team if a team forfeits a game, per the District Director’s approval.
