To Schedule an Official Match

To organize an official friendly (to be counted in the ranking) both squads must be in acceptance of the time and day of the match, this is the managers' responsibility. Once both managers have an agreement, both managers must post the arranged match in the Manager's Forum.

The Post must be as follow:

• Manager PSN/Gamertag:

• Day: Day/Month/Year

• Time: GMT: 24:00 (GMT= Greenwich meridian time)

• Challenge:

• Comments:

In case one of the managers decides to postpone a match, they must give 24 hours’ notice and speak with the opponent manager to set a new time and they must also notify the staff of the iFVPA.

iFVPA Forum

The iFVPA Forum is open to the public. However, only accepted community owners, International Managers, and Qualifying Champions League Club's Manager will have access to the Managers Forum.

iFVPA International Teams Matchday Rules

1. Every manager has 15 minutes after the accorded time to contact the rival manager, if 15 minutes or more go by without response, the team can file a formal complaint for the iFVPA committee to review.

2. Once the contact has been established, the team has 30 minutes to play with at least 8 players. If there are less than 8 players, the match is an automatic forfeit on grounds of incompletion.

3. Every team has 3 attempts to start a match in case players disconnect on the load-up screen. After those 3 attempts the match must be played regardless.

4. Leave the goalkeeper alone: Do not push, block or stand in front of the Goalkeeper on purpose. This includes corners, free kicks, regular play, etc. If this is done the match will have to be replayed or forfeited by the offending team. The offending player will also be suspended. Video Proof will be required for reviewing.

5. All teams should let the introductions play in full. This helps with the lag/delay issues. If a team skips intros and the game is slow for some the game will have to be restarted right away.

6. The iFVPA reserves the right to suspend/ban from every competition any player who insults, cheats, lie about nationality, etc. Every case reported by a MANAGER will be documented and investigated accordingly by the iFVPA committee.
