Penalty kicks in cup matches
In the event of a tie in cup matches, the match is decided by a penalty shootout (five kicks for each team - then one kick per team). A player may only kick a second time when the whole team including substitutes and goalkeepers have kicked once.
Age compensation
A team may use a maximum of two players (5-a-side, 8-a-side and 11-a-side) who were born in the last half of the year before the age group in question.
The use does not require prior authorisation and does not entail the loss of the opportunity to win the series or be eligible for promotion in the event of a play-off.
The age ratio must always be documented upon request to the tournament management.
If a named player has a dispensation from DBU or similar, the dispensation is also valid for the Madsby Girls' Cup, provided it is submitted to the event management by 20 May.

Protest fees must be paid to the event management immediately after the match.
The protest fee for the Madsby Girls Cup is DKK 500, which will be refunded if the protest is upheld.
The event management makes the final decisions in connection with the organisation of the event, and it is the event management that may impose suspensions on expelled players and managers.
