RULES

We can’t do without rules. We try to have a minimum of them. We assume you’ve all read them.

CREW

FAIR PLAY

Island Cup games has a fair-play character. The organization expects sportsmanship from players, visitors, coaches and others, both on the ice and beyond. Please read the article Ice hockey carefully.

EMERGENCIES 

During the tournament there are official helpers in orange vests. In emergencies, they are the first point of contact. They take care to follow the correct procedures as soon as possible to achieve the right solution. When you can’t find them, ask a crew member.

NO SMOKING

Smoking is not allowed in the Sportsboulevard. If you want to smoke, you can go outside.

PETS

No pets are allowed in the Sportboulevard.

PARKING

In front of the ice rink there is a big parking lot. After 18.00pm it will only cost 2 euro till 03.00am. Before 18.00pm the price per hour is 1,30 euro’s (max. 13 euro’s). At the weekend parking costs are 2 euro’s a day. Every time you leave the parking lot you have to buy a new ticket.

CATERING / ENTERTAINMENT

First you will receive a welcome package for your team. In this package you will find tournament shirts and also all sorts of goodies. Also there are tournament wristbands in the package. It is intended that both the players, the coach and the ‘cheerleaders’ will put it on their wrist for all 3 days, so we know who is welcome at the dinner buffet and the party’s.
On Friday you will receive a lunchbox for the team. After the last game there will be diner and party at ‘ Postillion Hotels’. The organisation will arrange the transport to and from with mini vans. Can you let us know if you’ll be using our transport please.
On Saturday you will receive a lunchbox for your team. And after the last game we have diner and party at ‘De Witten Haen’. The organisation will arrange the transport to and from with mini vans.
On Sundays, you will receive a lunchbox for the team.

ICE HOCKEY

The games will be played according to the published schedule and following IIHF recreational rules. This allows slap shots and body contact but no body checks. Any infraction concerning body checking will be penalized. The Icing rule is applied. Face-offs following a penalty that creates a short-handed situation will be taken in the violating teams own zone.

The matches will be played with duration of 2x 20 minutes. Due to the tight schedule the organisation expects the teams to be game-ready on time.
Please beware the game will start on time. If any team is not ready to start playing, they shall receive a warning from the referees to get ready within 30 seconds. When a team fails to comply a 1 minute minor penalty for delaying the game shall be assessed. The time of all penalties start at the next face-off moment.

After every other game, we would kindly like to ask each team to provide a volunteer to move the goals because the ice will be resurfaced after every game.
For competition purpose the game points are as listed below:

  • Winner   3 points
  • Draw       1 point
  • Loss        0 point

In the event of a tied standing after the first and the second game round, the following tie-breakers will be used in this order:

  • The result between the tied teams
  • The better number of goals for
  • The better number of goals against
  • The fewest penalties in minutes

In the unlikely event these tie-breakers do not produce a winner, the final decision
rests with the organizations game officials.
Minor penalties are 1 minute instead of 2. Every 6th minor to the same player in the same game is converted to major and thus game-ejection.
Mayor penalties are an automatic game misconduct. The team of the penalized player will NOT be short-handed following a major.
A second major by the same player will result in ejection from the tournament (even if you are from abroad)! (note: not the combination of 6 minors and a major)
Please count to 10 before doing something stupid. It’s a friendly tournament.

All officials do this out of love for the game. They are here, so you can play! Please treat everybody with the same amount of respect you want others to treat you with. Abuse of officials will be reposted to the organization’s official for review and further disciplinary actions.

Participation is at your own risk.
