SUPEFA CUP

MEN FELLOWSHIP V/S YOUTH FELLOWSHIP
GITHURAI PEFA CHURCH

TIME: ALL TEAMS TO HAVE REPORTED BY 14.45 HRS [ SAA TISA KASOROBO ] / 2.45 P.M.
VENUE: NPBC GARDEN ESTATE
*****CAUTION: INDIVIDUAL PARTICIPANTS WHO WILL NOT HAVE SHOWN UP AT THE VENUE BY 3.15 P.M. WILL BE DISQUALIFIED.*****
Introduction
Skynet Institute & Travel Services LTD (popularly known as skynet aviation Institute) has the pleasure of inviting all participants to this fascinating game known as supefa cup. This will be an annual competition which will be done every August.
Objectives
 To promote fellowship & God relationship amongst church members.
 To promote unity amongst different groups both in the church & in the society as a whole
 Enhance co-operation within participants & other groups within the Christian fraternity
 To reach out to the community as church members through sports being one of the greatest commission of Christ-“love one another.” John 14.22
 Supefa games will provide opportunities for church Outreach ministry
Rarely do WE use the term Sports Ministry without the word Outreach in the middle. Sports Outreach Ministry is a way for churches to reach beyond their walls into their community in a culturally relevant and attractive way. It may be children’s soccer, youth basketball, or adult golf ; regardless, people play sports. And people watch sports. Everyone has a favorite team and sport they watch and if they don’t they jump on the bandwagon of one team or another when the playoffs reach peak excitement. Sports are culturally relevant. They are a creative means to reach out to people in your community, people who are unchurched and/or lost. A family could make contact with your church for the first time through something as fun as sports. If they have a good experience maybe they will consider visiting your church. What a tremendous opportunity sports ministry provides for outreach.
 Supefa games will provide opportunities for Ministry
Sports are relational. It may be cheering on a teammate, learning from a coach, or even chatting in the bleachers. Churches that have Sports Outreach Events challenge people that normally hang out in a Christian bubble to connect with people in their community, again many that are unchurched and/or lost. What a great way to make your church externally focused. The connections that are made in this way will go a long way in giving unchurched folk a positive view of the church and lost people a good impression of Christ followers. These relationships will naturally lead to opportunities to share stories about your faith. These relationships will also lead to opportunities to minister to people that need a helping hand or encouraging word when life is challenging. What a tremendous chance sports outreach provides for ministry.
 Supefa games will provide opportunities for Evangelism
Last but not least, sports provide a chance to share the Gospel. Maybe you have made a friend through the outreach effort of your church that asks you some basic questions about God. Maybe you have ministered to someone you met through a sports outreach event and it provided a chance for you to lead them to Christ. Or maybe you have the privilege of sharing the Good News at a Children’s Vacation Sports Camp and seeing an amazing response to the Gospel message. If God uses you in this capacity you will never be the same, and you will always want to be a part of a sports outreach ministry that provides outreach, ministry, and evangelism avenues for you and your church. This is the reason why our church opted to start a sports ministry today and impact our community for Christ.
ROLE OF SUPEFA
• Value of SUPEFA games: SUPEFA games is a means of exchange and understanding among people of various backgrounds, nationalities or beliefs, and promotes expression beyond traditional barriers. The rules of the game
transcend differences and inequality and help redefine success and performance. Through sport, people identify new role models in society.
• SUPEFA games demographics and health: Physical activity has a crucial social impact on society’s health and well-being as well as healthcare costs. A connection also exists between being physically active and living a healthy lifestyle. But as we Kenyans grow older, sport must reinvent itself to deal with this demographic shift.
• SUPEFA games and education: SUPEFA games provides not only health benefits for young participants but also instills qualities such as team work, Discipline and a competitive spirit that prove valuable in adulthood. It therefore warrants a prominent place in the educational system.
• SUPEFA games and Politics: SUPEFA games and politics often go hand-in-hand. Events such as football matches and the Olympic Games can be vehicles for improving understanding between individuals, fellowships, churches, districts and countries.
• SUPEFA games and Economic Development: SUPEFA games can contribute to economic development by creating additional sources of income including the manufacture of sporting goods, the development of sport related services and infrastructure or the hosting of sports events. Is government policy needed to elevate the importance of sport? How much investment can developing countries justify to promote sport, compared to other urgent social programmes?
• A case for the Future : Of concern in the past decade has been the relocation of production in developing countries like ours,our failure to produce low cost sporting products or poor working conditions and management of sports industry – particularly the issue of nurturing new talent.

• SUPEFA games and social entrepreneurship: An opportunity to build sport social entrepreneurship that fuels both social change and job creation exists. This can be driven primarily through the emerging hybrid of entrepreneurship, private sector initiatives like ours and the NGO movement.
Supefa Participation Rewards
1. Supefa Trophy [Cup] For the Winning Team
2. Recognition Certificates
a) The Best Player
b) The Leading Scorer
RULES OF FOOTBALL
The rules of football can be complex and vary depending on the level of play. We will cover some of the basics here including the field, players, offense, defense, and penalties.
Football Field

The football field is 120 yards long and 53 ½ yards wide. At each end of the field and 100 yards apart are the goal lines. The additional 10 yards at each end is the end zone. The field is divided up every 5 yards by a yard line. The middle yard line marker is called the 50 yard line. In parallel to the side lines are rows of hash marks. The football is always placed on or between the hash marks at the start of each play. This ensures that the teams have space to line up on both sides of the football. The position of the football that defines the sides of the ball is called the "line of scrimmage".

There are also goal posts at the back of each football end zone. One way to score is to kick the football through the goal posts. The ball must go between the uprights and over the crossbar.

If any part of a player with the football touches outside the side lines or the end zone this is considered Out of Bounds.

Game format

Football is a timed sport. The team with the most points at the end of the time period, wins the game. The game is divided up into 4 periods or quarters with a long "half time" between the second and third quarter. Time is counted while plays are running and sometimes between plays (i.e. time continues after a running play where the player was tackled in bounds, but stops on an incomplete pass). To keep the game going at a good pace the offense has a limited time (called the play clock) between plays.

Football Players

The rules in football allow each team to have 11 players on the field at a time. Teams may substitute players between plays with no restrictions. Each team must start a play on their side of the ball.

The defensive players may take any position they want and can move about their side of the football prior to the play without restriction. Although there are certain defensive positions that have become common over time, there are no specific rules defining defensive positions or roles.

The offensive players, however, have several rules that define their position and what role they may take in the offense. Seven offensive players must be lined up on the line of scrimmage. The other four players must be lined up at least one yard behind the line of scrimmage. All of the offensive football players must be set, or still, prior to the play beginning with the exception of one of the 4 backs which may be moving parallel or away from the line of scrimmage. Further rules say that only the 4 backs and the players at each end of the line of scrimmage may catch a pass or run the football.

The Football Play

The team with the possession of the football is called the offense. The offense tries to advance the football on plays. The defense tries to prevent the offense from scoring or advancing the football. The down system: The offense must advance the ball at least 10 yards every four plays or downs. Each time the offense is successful in advancing the ball 10 yards, they get four more downs or what is called a "first down". If the offense does not get 10 yards in four plays, the other team gains possession of the football at the current line of scrimmage. In order to keep the other team from getting good field position the offense can punt (kick) the ball to the other team intentionally. This is often done on 4th down, when the offense is outside of field goal range. Offensive plays on downs start with a snap. This is when the center passes the football between their legs to one of the offensive backs (usually the quarterback). The ball is advanced either by running with the football (called rushing) or passing the football. The football play is over when 1) the player with the football is tackled or goes out of bounds 2) an incomplete pass 3) there is a score.

The offensive team can lose possession of the football by:
• Scoring
• Not getting 10 yards in four downs.
• Fumbling or dropping the football and the defensive team recovers it.
• Throwing the football to a defensive player for an interception.
• Punting, or kicking, the football to the defensive team.
• Missing a field goal.
• Getting tackled in the end zone for a safety.


Football Penalties

There are many rules and penalties that are enforced during a football game. Most football penalties result in a loss or gain of yardage depending on whether the penalty is against the offense or the defense. The severity of the penalty determines the number of yards. Most penalties are 5 or 10 yards, but some personal foul penalties result in 15 yards. Also, pass interference can result in a penalty that matches the length of the intended pass. The team that did not commit the penalty has the right to decline the penalty. We won't list or detail ever possible football infraction, but here are some of the more common football penalties:

False Start: When a football player on the offense moves just prior to the snap. This is a five yard penalty. Note that one back on the offense can legally be "in motion" at the time of the snap.

Offside: If a player from the offense or defense is on the wrong side of the line of scrimmage at the time of the snap. A defensive player can cross the line of scrimmage as long as they get back before the snap, but if they touch an offensive player they can be called for encroachment.

Holding: When a player grabs a football player without the ball with the hands or hooks him or tackles him.

Pass Interference: When a defender contacts a pass receiver after the ball is in the air to prevent him from catching the ball. This is up to the referee to determine. If the contact is before the ball is in the air it will be called defensive holding. Note that pass interference can also be called on the offense if the defender has position and is trying to catch the ball.

Facemask: To protect the football players, it is illegal to grab another player's facemask.

Roughing the passer or kicker: To protect kickers and quarterbacks, who are very vulnerable when they are passing or kicking the ball, players are not allowed to run into them after the ball has been thrown or kicked.

Intentional Grounding: When the passer throws a pass nowhere near an eligible receiver strictly to avoid being sacked.

Ineligible Receiver Downfield: When one of the offensive players that is not an eligible receiver is more than 5 yards downfield from the line of scrimmage during a forward pass.
