Optus Small-Sided Football Laws of the game - email sent by Chris Arena from Football Federation Victoria:
"Dear OSSF clubs
A reminder to all coaches, game leaders and instructing referees of Optus Small-Sided Football participants U7’s – U11’s to please follow the national Laws during your fixture games. The Laws can be downloaded by clicking on the following link: http://www.smallsidedfootball.com.au/pdfs/2010/

The Laws are in place to ensure an enjoyable participation environment for all involved and are specifically designed for the small-sided football landscape which encourages rapid player development.
Please ensure the nominated instructing referee has a copy of the laws on hand prior to commencing the start of any match and that this person understands and respects the laws.
