Unwritten rules of summer shinny. I'll start.
No slapshots, ever, I don't care how open you are. Pass to the kid, and if the kid scores it counts double in everyone's heart. Goals don't count if the goalie was fixing his water bottle. And everybody knows exactly what a big celly costs you socially in a no-contact game. Whoever brings the nets makes the teams. That one's constitutional. Add yours.
