if PENALTY KICK in OT 3-4-5-6 (non-full strength periods) all normal PK rules apply, except:
-Defense appoints Goalkeeper from players on field at the time of the infraction. Can touch ball only once (to stop kick).
-All players except the Goalkeeper and the player selected to take the PK (who must also already be on the field at the time of the infraction) retreat to the halfway line.
-If the PK goes in directly, or after rebounding from the "woodwork" or off the Goalkeeper, goes in, the game is over.
-But the player selected to take the PK may NOT touch the ball a second time.
-If the ball hits the "woodwork" or is deflected by the Goalkeeper and in either case comes to rest without having left the playing area, the game is restarted with a Goal Kick.
-If the PK is kicked directly out, over the goal line or over the net, the game is restarted with a Goal Kick.
-If the PK deflects off the Goalkeeper and goes over the goal line or over the touch line, the game is restarted with a Corner Kick or a Throw-In by the attacking team, after the referee has allowed both teams on the field to reassemble.
-Except for those changes expressly made here with regard to the conduct of a penalty kick, all other procedures for conducting the penalty kick as set forth in the most recent version of the Laws of the Game shall remain in effect.

SUBSTITUTIONS
-Only at the start of each OT period or for an injury.
-Coach can play any players in any/every period (in other words, no min.periods of play for each player).
-Players leaving the game due to an injury or Red Card, may not return in any subsequent OT period. An Injured player can be substituted for.
-Players receiving a Red Card CANNOT be substitued for, their team must play one player short through all remaining OT periods.

OFFSIDE
-Offside rule is in effect in period 1-2-3-4, NO OFFSIDE in periods 5-6 (7 v 7 no offside in periods 4-5)
