Football forms part of the core sports activities available at NAIS Pudong. Playing football not only helps students to improve their physical fitness and health, but also to learn technical ball skills and build relationships with their teammates.

To determine the overall final positions in the tournaments the points allocated will be:
Win – 4 points, Draw – 2 points, Defeat – 1 point
The deciding criteria for “breaking” a tie is as follows:
1. Head to head result
2. Points difference (goal difference) (between tied teams)
3. Points scored (between tied teams)
4. Points against (between tied teams)
If there is still a tie:
5. Points difference (goal difference) (between all teams)
6. Points scored (between all teams)
7. Points against (between all teams)
The procedure for “breaking” a 3 way tie follows the same criteria as above
Once a tie break has been resolved additional ties will be resolved in the same format using the same sequence of procedures beginning with the head to head result (point 1)
There is no extra time scheduled for round robin games in football.
