This is a really difficult one to understand and causes a lot of confusion even among experienced soccer players. Soccer Rules for Baffled Parents contains a very good description for offsides. Wikipedia also has a good description along with images.
The key questions to keep in mind are: "Where was the player at the time the ball was kicked/passed?" and "Was the player actively involved in the play?". Because of the complexity in making an offsides call, the MCSC does not use the rule until the U11 age group.
