SCORING RULE: If your team is up by 3 or more goals, you are required to remove the "top scorer" to a non-scoring position. He/she does not have to leave the field. Move the player to a defense or a mid-field position. If the other team scores a goal and gets to 2 goals or closer, move the player back out front if you choose to. Please use good judgment; but, 3 goals or higher, the referee is instructed to have you move your player.
