About Us

Don't have enough players for your game? You can use a "player pass!"  You can "borrow" a player(s) from another team.

 

Here are a few rules:

​

​-A player can only play on a player pass 4 times per season (not per team, 4 times total)​

​

-Grades 3-6: You can only use up to 3 player passes in any given game.

-Grades 7-12:  you can only use up to 4 player passes in any given game.
        -Only grade 8 can play up with high school, and player must be at least 14 years old.

​​

-If you submit for a player pass and don't use it (for example, the game is rained out) - it's important to let Liz (our registrar) know so that a "turn" is not used up.

​

-A player in D1 or D2 cannot play down in their own grade group. However, a Division 1 player may go to any team in a higher grade level. For the purpose of player pass, D3 through D5 is considered equal.

 

-If you want more info, there is more detailed player pass info in the league handbook, which is on the NVYSL website.

 

How to request player passes:

​

Below is the information needed for submitting player passes. Please give this info to your coordinator, with both age group coordinators in copy. The age group coordinator will then complete the below form. Here is the information the coordinator must provide:

​

(1)    Game Date and ID

 

(2)    Host Team Name (Team Using the Guest Player)

 

(3)    Guest Player's Name and Team they are Rostered on

​

Once approved by the league, our registrar will send notification, and host team should be sure to obtain the guest roster from the coach or coordinator.

 

- If 34 teams need to use a 2nd grade player, a new roster will need to be approved (for a second grader, it's not a player pass), which means we should have this info in by Thursday PM latest. However we should ALL strive to get her info by Thursday PM so that there is not a rush prior to the game.

​

-Rosters for player passes: you must bring the roster of the player joining your team on a pass, and then submit it along with your team roster. Highlight the player pass kid on the guest roster to make it easier on the ref, and then add in the player's number (don't write anything else on the roster).

 

Example: B56 Coach needs a substitute player for her game because they are shorthanded, so she reaches out to B34 and B56 Coordinators to find a player who is able and interested. Once they've confirmed that player, B56 Coach provides B56 Coordinator with the player's name and rostered team, game ID and date for the game they are using the pass for.  The form is then completed by the B56 Coordinator. B56 Coach and B34/B56 Coordinators then keep track of the player pass name that has been used, so that they can help monitor the "only 4 times per season" rule for each child that plays on a pass. (We will also track this on a spreadsheet, but it's better to know that early in the process!) Once approved, Registrar will email the approval from the league. B34 Coordinator sends the B34 roster to B56 coach.  Don't forget, B56 coach needs to let the email chain know if there is a rain out and player pass wasn't used.
