Cancellation Policy
Posted by patdunham 208 days ago
1) Cancellation Policy
PCJSL allows each team to “black out” days when they are not available to play. This is done prior to flighting. Because we give our teams this right, we have a firm no cancellation policy.
We understand that emergencies can happen and we will look at cancellations created by an emergency situation on a case-by-case basis. Having a coach who is out of town, a player who cannot play (even the best player on the team), forgetting to enter a date when your team is entering a tournament, entering the wrong date, etc. are NOT emergencies and will be treated as cancellations. Cancellations are defined but not limited to:
§ Canceling the game in advance;
§ Forfeiting for lack of cards;
§ Forfeiting for insufficient number of players;
§ Forfeiting because there is no Risk Management cleared coach with a Coach’s Card;
§ Forfeiting for arriving late;
§ Having the game terminated for any reason for which your team is at fault;
§ Arranging another game and not playing the game as scheduled.
If your team should still decide to cancel a game, they MUST follow each of these steps:
1. NOTIFY THE OPPOSING COACH. The league will not do this for you. Give that coach time to notify his/her team. Coaches contact information can be found by contacting the Club president or registrar as noted on the web page; if this doesn’t work, contact any PCJSL board member for assistance.
2. At the earliest possible time, notify the League by emailing Board Members Jeff Welliver (in charge of cancellations) at jmw@theriver.com, Cheryl Copeland (Fields) at freedomsc@msn.com, Maggie Barton & Karen Phillips (referee coordinators) at cactusmouse@comcast.net & bkphil2@msn.com, Pat Dunham (President) at patdunham@aol.com, Detlef Lange (Vice President) at detleflange@hotmail.com
3. Attempt to reschedule the game. This should be done in cooperation with the team you were scheduled to play, using your club to secure fields and referees. The League will attempt to secure referees only if requested a minimum of two weeks in advance.
You will still be subject to the following fines:
