In the event of overtime in the playoffs, the teams will play 3 on 3 (2 males, 1 female) for 7 1/2 minutes of running time with last minute stop time. If still tied, a 3 player shootout will take place with the higher ranked team choice

If a team receives a minor penalty, a penalty shot shall be awarded to the opposing team. All penilties will be blown down immediately. A double minor will result in two penalty shots by two separate players. For coincidental minor penalties, each team will take a penalty shot.

Only a player that was on the floor at the time of the infraction can take the penalty shot. If a team receives a major penalty or misconduct of any kind, a penalty shot will be awarded and they will be ejected from the game. Any players that are called for intentional head contact/fighting,Gross MS, Match penalty, will be ejected from the tournament.

 

If there no goal scored on the shootout, the opposing team will resume play when the ball is placed behind the goal line. A faceoff will take place if a goal is scored.

Each team is permitted 1, 30 second timeout per game. If a team has possession after a blown down play and calls a timeout, a faceoff at shall occur at the closest faceoff area to where the play was blown. If a team calls a timeout when the opposing team has possession, the opposing team maintains possession where the play was blown down.
