Managers

The Knight Soccer League, managers and players all want the games to be played and are willing to overlook most obstacles to ensure that the game is played as scheduled.

Match officials are appointed for every match by the KSL, should an official be unable to make it to the game the teams can agree to use another person to referee the match and the result will stand.

Home teams must ensure that two nets and four corner flags are in place for every match. Home teams on grass must line the pitch to the referee's satisfaction. Poor field lining, missing net(s) or lack of corner flags can result in fines.

Poor lining is an annoyance and although away teams and referees are irritated we want the game played. The home team will be fined $50 and should have nothing to complain about if the referee doesn’t rule in their favour because he can’t see the line.

Home teams will switch to their alternate jerseys if there’s a colour clash.

Pre-game duties include supplying two copies of KSL team lists, player picture ID & $30 for the referee, ‘club’ assistant whose only duty will be to advise the referee when the ball has fully and completely crossed the touch-line and is out of play and indicated by raising the flag high above his head, full set of jerseys with no duplicate numbers and no pinnies.

The KSL originally played on Thursday evenings, now we have matches spread out through the week. The mid-week divisional set-up is divided into north and south of the Fraser River with 5 divisions (1, 2, 3, 4 & Legends)  and we now have two Sunday divisions (Men’s ~ div. 2 & Co-ed) with the probable addition of a second Legends.

Managers must complete and submit a Team Affiliation form,  available on the website administration page with full contact information for at least two contacts.

Player Registration

The KSL is sanctioned by BCSA as an Associate Member League and register players on BCSA ‘C’ forms. Players who ‘signed’ a BCSA registration form (A, B or M) for winter play with a team in a BCSA sanctioned senior league are registered with BCSA for a full calendar year up to the next Sept. and don’t have to pay player registration in the KSL. Players registered in the fall / winter do have to register again to play KSL.

Players can play in more than one division of the KSL with the administrators agreement and they must register online for each team separately with complete information.

Pacific Coast Soccer League

Players wanting to register and play in the KSL who didn’t sign a BCSA form to play this previous fall /winter will have to pay $20 to play in the KSL. Players who sign with a Pacific Coast Soccer League team on their BCSA ‘A’ player registration form can also sign and play in the KSL without paying the $20 player registration fee.

Youth Soccer Players

Players who only signed and played youth soccer this previous fall / winter must pay $20 to register and play in the KSL and if they are under 19 years of age the player must submit a completed and signed Parental Liability form to a KSL officer before they can play.
