Hosting District Games

• Following the submission of an Application to Host Exhibition Games (AHEG) form, the EODSA grants annual blanket approval for all exhibition games played between EODSA teams within the EODSA's boundaries. As a result, any two teams that are registered members of the EODSA can arrange for a sanctioned exhibition game between themselves. All players participating in the game must be registered.


• An exhibition game is a game arranged between two teams of registered players with a registered Match Official, which is not a scheduled league game, play-off game, cup game, tournament game or festival game. Exhibition games have no stats, standings or set schedule of games. An exhibition game may also include one team of registered players playing against:
  
  
  • a college team, providing that the OSA has an adequate written agreement with the Ontario Colleges Athletic Association regarding the liability pertaining to the college team's participants;
  
  
  • an university team. providing that the OSA has an adequate written agreement with the Ontario University Athletics regarding the liability pertaining to the university team's participants; and
  
  
  • a team operated by an Ontario Soccer-Recognized Academy.
  
  
• In order for any such exhibition games to be considered sanctioned and thus eligible for insurance coverage, team officials are required to advise their club of the game details. Clubs are required to maintain a list of all intra-district exhibition games in which its teams compete in case there are any insurance inquiries.
