FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Can we still add players to our roster? - If your team's roster is not full, Yes, but there wil be a late fee - CONTACT YOUR CLUB REGISTRAR!
Help! I've lost our Game Reports - You can print a blank report and fill it out. The form is available under Forms on the GVSA website.
Can my son play on another team in GVSA? No, under no circumstances may a player play on two teams in the same league - this is a State rule!
We're short of players - can a player from another team fill in? No
We're only going to have 12 players on Sunday. Can we reschedule the game? Only with the permission of both clubs and a $25 fee will be required. Remember that a game can take place (U13 and older) if as few as 7 players are available. It is a great lesson to all the players on a team if this happens. The ones who actually show up will solve the problem at the next practice. We highly discourage rescheduling: It causes problems with getting Officials and penalizes those families who have set aside the original date and time and now cannot make it on a new date. If the opposing club does not wish to reschedule the game it must be played as originally scheduled.
Our coach has to go a wedding on Saturday? What do we do? All teams should have an Assistant Coach. If not your club may assign another coach to handle the game. Remember that the games are for the players, not the Coaches. Recsheduled games ineveitably mean that players will have to miss them, as their families have made other commitments, based on the publsihed schedules.
