Double-rostering
Looking for a moratorium on double-rostering until a review or update of rules and by-laws. If the league is to continue with allowing this practice, limitations will need to be followed:
· Do not double-roster within in the same age group
i.e., U9C and U9I are the same age group
i.e., U9B and U9G are the same age group
· 3 player maximum per team
· Reminder – this practice was initially instituted for mainly smaller organizations or teams who have lost players due to injury, etc.
