5. NHIAA Policy & Procedures Mouth Guard Administration
NO CHANGE FROM LAST SEASON
SOCCER MOUTH PROTECTOR RULE
All field players shall wear mouth protectors that must cover all molars as well as front teeth.
Mouth protectors must be worn in all practices and games. This includes preseason scrimmages, jamborees as well as the state tournament.
Mouth protectors are required of all participants at all levels of interscholastic competition (Freshman, Sub-Varsity, Varsity)
There is no color requirement for mouth protectors.

6. NHIAA Policy & Procedures Mouth Guard Administration
Coaches shall assume the responsibility to make certain each player is provided with and is properly wearing a mouth protector.
In the event a player is participating without a mouth protector the game official shall remove the player from the match and cannot return until the next dead ball whistle. There will be no substitution for the removed player.
If a player is found to (1) have cut down the mouth protector (2) hides the mouth protector in a part of the uniform (i.e. socks) or (3) discards the mouth protector on the field of play - A YELLOW CARD WILL BE ADMINISTERED ONLY TO THE PLAYER.
WAIVERS
Waivers can only be granted by the Sports Medicine Committee upon receipt of documentation provided by a physician (as defined by NH RSA 329). A player must wear
the mouth protector until clearance and waivers of liability have been signed by the
physician, parents and school.

7. NHIAA Policy & Procedures Mercy Rule
NO CHANGE FROM LAST SEASON
NHIAA MERCY RULE
If during the second half of play the score differential reaches 5 goals, the game will continue as a ‘running time’ without stopping the clock. If the differential becomes less than 5, the clock will return to stop time.

8. NHIAA Policy & Procedures Overtime Procedure
NO CHANGE FROM LAST SEASON
NHIAA REGULAR SEASON OVERTIME PROCEDURES
When the score is tied at the end of regulation time, the referee will instruct both teams to return to their respective team benches. There will be a five (5) minute intermission during which both teams may confer with their coaches and the head referee will instruct both teams as to how the overtime periods will be conducted. A coin toss shall be held in accordance with Rule d-3 of the National Federation Rules Book. The teams will play one ten (10) minute sudden-victory overtime period. If the score is still tied, the teams will change ends after a 2 minute intermission (substitutions are allowed) and a second ten (10) minute sudden-victory period will be played.

9. NHIAA Policy & Procedures Interstate Contests
NO CHANGE FROM LAST SEASON
Officials should have a pregame meeting with coaches of both teams to inform them of the mouth guard standards, educating coaches that mouth guards that are cut too small will not provide much protection.
IN ALL INTERSTATE CONTESTS, each participating school shall follow the contest rules of the state association of the host school hosting the event. The rules referred to are contest rules only and not rules applying to age, number of semesters of attendance, residency or academic accomplishments. No school may violate its own state association rules.

10. NHIAA Policy & Procedures Reporting Cards
CARDS ISSUED IN GAME
Any team whose players/coaches receive a collective total of five (5) cards in a game will result in immediate termination of the game and result in forfeiture by the offending team. If both teams receive the collective total of five (5) at the same time both teams will receive a forfeiture loss. This will include regular season and tournament play.
Game officials must report all yellow and red card infractions to the NHIAA Office via the Arbiter following their games.
Athletic Directors are required to report all yellow and red cards via the soccer card report on the NHIAA website. Yellow card accumulation rules apply at all levels for soccer.
