About Sixes
ALL HIGH SCHOOL MN ELITE ROSTERS PLAY SIXES DURING THEIR YEAR-ROUND TRAINING
Continuous gameplay: after a goal, play resumes with a goalie clear; draws occur only at the start of each quarter
Smaller field (70 x 36 meters)
Emphasizes tempo, with fewer stoppages in play and more touches on the ball
Everyone plays both sides of the field (defense/offense); substitutions made on the fly
Defenders 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
