Tournament guidelines

edit

Every match in the tournament will be played with 40-minute halves, instead of the usual 45, resulting in 80 minutes of action in total, excluding added time. If a match is tied at full time, it will go directly to a penalty shoot-out, without extra time. Up to five substitutions will be allowed, with a maximum of three substitution breaks (excluding half-time), as per FIFA's recommendation.

The top three teams from the tournament will qualify for the 2024 edition of the Japanese Regional Champions League, which serves as the play-off for the Japan Football League. However, the top three teams are not necessarily the semi-finalists; rather, they will be the best-ranked teams in the "Shakaijin" among those that have not won their respective Regional Leagues.

Regarding suspensions, players or officials will be suspended for an upcoming match if they: (1) receive yellow cards in two consecutive matches, or (2) are shown a red card. Accumulated yellow cards will be reset after the quarter-finals.
