Weekly Pickup Participation Etiquette

  1. Players must sign-up on Meetup, preferably a few days ahead of play time, to ensure we have a head count to decide playing vs. cancelling – we need a minimum of 10 floor players to play.

  2. Players must arrive on time and help set up the rink. After the end of pickup play time, players must also help break down the rink.

  3. The teams are divided into players wearing dark and white t-shirts. It’s recommended to bring one of each color to help balance the teams.

  4. IMPORTANT – All players participating in pickup are paying a nominal fee for play time. To allow for fair distribution of play time, it’s required that players are substituting in a timely manner to allow fair play time for all.

    • It’s typical to play between 2 – 3 mins and then substitute out the position to a player waiting next in line

    • While in active play, players should not be standing around, but rather actively running around to create plays and opportunities for scoring
