Main Changes are :-

1) The Model Disciplinary and Hearing Guidelines issued in 2000 have been revised. A copy of the changes is attached.
2) For Boys County Age Group ONLY…U13 and U14 County Cup 25 yard semi circles have been introduced on a trial basis.
3) Restriction of the placement of fielders is now in place in all Competitions.
4) Cockspur Cup – If a player is registered for a Premier League Club then he can only play for that club in the Cockspur Cup.
5) Men’s and Women’s Generic Rules have been merged to provide consistency, reduce the size and improve navigation.
