to the athlete's skill level.

all participants will receive an award.
Open Division
No restrictions as to how the team was formed or the number
of guest players allowed. If you cannot provide a copy

| Open and Rec.
Divisions may be divided into the subdivision(s) Blue,
Red and White based on a team's rating level. Each
team MUST submit a competitive rating level between 1

most competitive team ranking. Please contact the
Iowa Games office at 888-777-8881 ext. 3 if you have
questions concerning your rating. |

Rules
Current F.I.F.A. and U.S.Y.S. rules will apply in a revised
form for the Iowa Games. Additional
and specific rules will be posted here approximately 7
days prior to competition. Please review prior to
attending the Summer Games.
Player I.D.
Players must present a
photocopy of a birth certificate
with a current photo attached, driver's permit/license,
provide a current player pass, INS port-of-entry stamp, or
passport at check-in prior to playing. No I.D., No Play.
Age Determining Date
August 1, 2007. The best answer to determine
legal players is to ask each player their age on August 1,
2007. For instance, if you are an Under 14 team, then all
players must be age 13 or younger on August 1, 2007. Basically,
if your team played Under 12 in the fall of 2007 and/or the
spring of 2008, then your team is Under 12 for purpose of
the Summer Iowa Games. Athletes competing in the Under 16
division must be at least 13 years old and athletes in the
Under 19 division must be at least 14 years old.
