Field and Equipment Policies
All teams should review and follow the IMPORTANT policies below for the fields in our municipalities, which are rented by the LMFC. Coaches and managers are responsible for making sure that their teams (and the parents and supporters) follow these policies. Please refer to the instructions below throughout the season.
Placement of Goals after Games and Practices:
Unless another LMFC team is using the fields immediately after your team, please move and place the goals as follows:
Harbor Island Front: Face to face on the end-line closest to the Boston Post Road
Placement of Sand Bags after Games and Practices
Corner Flags
Each LMFC team has been given a set of corner flags. Extra sets are in the Harbor Island soccer shed, which is open on weekends.
