About Sixes

*Modified for Tournament* Games played in four 6-minute quarters
Goalies initiate play after goals are scored; draws/face-offs occur only at the start of each quarter
70 x 36 meter field
Emphasizes tempo, with fewer stoppages in play
Everyone plays both sides of the field (defense/offense); substitutions made on the fly
Rosters comprised of 12 players, leading to more playing time and more touches on the ball
On the women’s side, defensive players are not penalized for entering the shooting lane of an offensive player; offensive players are penalized for taking a shot without regard for other players
