I think I would probably try playing as a striker

From the report thread for the game last Sunday (2 Sep 2018): .... One point of contention that arose again today was regarding sliding tackles. I know jiv has addressed this in much detail in a section on this site but there are always disputes arising from whether a sliding tackle was made. So there are 2 instances that have come up frequently:- 1. where the defending players slides to block a shot/pass without touching the attacking player; 2. where the defending players tackles the attacking player, gets the ball but "slips" into a slide I think 2 is quite clear cut that its not a slide but will let Jiv clarify 1.  A variation to 1 is where the defending players slides to block a shot, blocks it and then attacking player falls over the extended leg of the defending player. A variation to 1 is where the defending players slides to block a shot, blocks it and then attacking player falls over the extended leg of the defending player. That depends if the attacking player falls over the extended leg and rolls and reaches the nearest KFC , then is a clear red card and penalty. Believe it's ok to slide 'the space' to block a shot or cross but not slide in on the player. The rules generally provide for the following:
- Sliding tackles are not allowed.
- Kicking or hacking an opponent, or tripping an opponent, are not allowed and may be regarded as serious foul play or violent play.
- All forms of gamesmanship, including but not limited to winding up opponents (over and above mere banter), simulation and feigning injury, repeatedly making unnecessary calls during a game or stubbornly insisting on calls going in one's favour, or calling out to an opponent to pass the ball to you in order to confuse the opponent.
Further discussion here.

Desmond raised the following with me after the game on Saturday, 15 December 2018, on the big covered pitch at Grandstand, providing me with some examples as well.  I have not made any changes yet. I will leave it for discussion on this thread for now. I am thinking of the following formulation - No sliding towards or close to an opposing player who at the time the slide commences had possession of the ball, has possession of the ball, or is about to receive possession of the ball. This would exclude a slide across the face of goal to deflect the ball away from or into goal, or sliding near the perimeter lines to keep the ball in play rather than going out of play, or sliding to take the ball of an opposing who has clearly overrun the ball such that the ball is no longer in his possession. The higher ratio for number of players to playing area for the covered big pitch at the Grandstand, where we play 8-a-side on Saturdays and Sundays instead of 7-a-side, does carry several safety risks. I will review the broader question of whether we should be playing 7-a-side instead of 8-a-side on the big covered pitch at the Grandstand separately.
