CLUB PASSCARDS

FALL 2010/SPRING 2011

 

MYSL Rules and Regulations

General

 

Club Passcards are available to all MYSL Leagues and Clubs with the objective to allow coaches to move players within their own League/Club based on a player’s development needs and specific team needs.

 

Abusing or violating any of the MYSL rules and regulations while using Club Passcards is a serious offense and will be dealt with as such.

 

Each participating League/Club must give MYSL an approved logo that will be printed on all of their passcards.  This enables the referee and opposing team to determine that there may be Club Passcard players participating in a MYSL league game. The official MYSL game sheet must note, in the spaces provided, ALL players competing in that game who are using their Club Passcards, their name, original team, age group and division. FAILURE TO FILL OUT GAME SHEETS PROPERLY COULD RESULT IN A MISUSE OF CLUB PASSCARDS AND A VIOLATION OF REGULATIONS.

 

MYSL Competition Rules by AGE GROUP are:

 

FOR AGE GROUPS U-11 and above

·        A player can only use a Club Passcard to play on a team competing in a higher ranked division of competition than that indicated on his/her registered team’s Club Passcard OR an older age group. A player may not move down a division and or an age group (even if otherwise age appropriate).  When moving up, a player may not move up more than two age groups.

 

·        Teams playing full-sided games (11v11 players) may move up NO more than THREE PLAYERS for any given game.

 

·        Teams must, at all games, meet all age group roster requirements; roster size cannot be increased beyond the specified roster size as shown by the MYSL playing grid for each age group.

 

 

 

 

FOR AGE GROUPS U-8, U-9 and U 10

 

·        A player can use a Club Passcard to PLAY for any  of their specific Club/League teams in their respective age groups, while playing in either U-8, U-9 or U-10.  Players may not move down an age group (even if player is otherwise age appropriate, for example a U-8 player registered on a U-10 team cannot passcard down to a U-8 or U-9 team).

 

·        Teams playing small sided games (6v6 and 8v8 players), can move up NO more than two players for any given game.

 

·        Penalty points (YELLOW/RED CARDS)

 

Cards accrued will remain with the player’s originally registered team.  The penalized player must serve (sit out) his/ her penalty at the next physically played league game of their originally registered team, regardless of which team he/she was playing for when the card was received.

 

Please Note:  In order to avoid forfeiting a game and possible league position in the standings you must mark clearly that the player is serving his/her penalty for a red card or yellow card accumulation on your game sheet.

 

If a player receives three (3) or more yellow cards in any seasonal year they must sit out a game, this is for all league play regardless of which team and or teams they received the yellow cards with.  THREE (3) YELLOW CARDS IN REGULAR LEAGUE PLAY require a player to sit out one (1) game with his rostered team.

 

·        Teams that misuse Club Passcards will forfeit the games in which the players participated and will be fined $50 for the first violation, $100 for the second violation, and $200 for the third violation.  In addition to the fines, the team could lose the privilege of using Club Passcards and the coach could be placed on probation and/or suspended for up to one year for misusing and abusing Club Passcards.

 

PLEASE NOTE: YOU MAY NOT PLAY ANY PLAYER REGISTERED IN MYSL IN ANOTHER LEAGUE ( FOR EXAMPLE: MSPSP) UNLESS THEY ARE DUAL ROSTERED.  VIOLATIONS WILL CAUSE YOU TO FORFEIT YOUR ENTIRE SEASON IN BOTH LEAGUES.
