  • Guide to the Laws of Mini-Mod Footy
    NEW ZEALAND RUGBY LEAGUE® GUIDE TO THE LAWS OF MINI-MOD FOOTY NZRL Publication January 2010 THIS BOOKLET IDENTIFIES THE MAJOR MODIFICATIONS TO THE LAWS OF MODIFIED GAMES. WHERE NO MODIFICATIONS ARE MENTIONED, INTERNATIONAL LAW APPLIES. The Mini-Mod programme is unashamedly about young players first, their interests and needs as a child – then, and importantly their development and preparation for the International Law game and its demands. In this way children can develop a ‘love’ of the game. Mini-Mod has two strands. Mini is an introductory phase that emphasises a positive experience through fun and enjoyment, participation, a safe playing environment and the development of basic movement skills. Mod, still emphasising all those aspects mentioned above, now focuses on technical skills. The League has taken great care to ensure youngsters experience their football in a controlled way that reflects their needs. Mini-Mod games are designed so that the player’s development can be matched gradually, progressively and sequentially to the complexities and demands of the adult game. All of this, a child oriented philosophy, is conditioning bright and happy children to be drawn to Rugby League through rewarding and satisfying experiences. In this way Mini-Mod is a recruitment and retention tool which must necessarily be supported by good club climate, coaches and parents. This booklet should be read in conjunction with the MINI FOOTY Replacement A player may only be replaced as a result of injury or after playing one full (Under 6 - Under 9 Years) 10 minute ‘period’ of play Classification of Players in the relevant age group to be Player Misconduct Sin Bin is not applicable.
