LEAGUE DIVISIONING

The creation of leagues and the availability of divisions within leagues is dependant on the number of teams registered per session. Groups may be combined to form leagues. It is our goal to put together divisions that provide the best competition for all teams involved. We respectfully request that you register your team appropriately. FSA reserves the right to promote or relegate a team from one division to another, after the completion of each session.

Youth Division Guidelines:

Recreational Level Teams – Register age appropriate

Travel Teams - Register age appropriate

Premier Teams - Register up one age group

Teams may be permitted to play up more than one year with prior approval of FSA administrative staff.

Under no circumstances will any team be permitted to play at a level below their age (decided by the oldest player on your roster).

Adult Division Guidelines:

Division 1 – Experienced/competitive

Division 2 – Intermediate/competitive

Recreational – Beginner/little experience

LEAGUE & TOURNAMENT ROSTERS

We respectfully ask that you submit a full legible roster to the front desk no later than the first scheduled game of the season. Roster forms are available through our website and front desk. Tournament rosters will need to be handed in at check in 30 minutes prior to your first scheduled game. CLICK HERE FOR FORM

Teams that do not have a current roster on file with the front desk are subject to the forfeit rule.

We will not “freeze” rosters. However, it is the team manager’s responsibility to keep the roster on file up to date.

If your team participated in a previous session a roster form with just the new players may be submitted as an addendum to the original roster.

Please plan to turn in the team roster and individual waivers at one time. This can be mailed to the arena or handed in to the front desk. This will make it easy for us to keep them organized and accessible should there be emergencies, roster questions, etc.

Under no circumstances will any recreational team (U6-U10 Recreational divisions) be permitted to roster a travel or premier developmental team player.

Players are not allowed to double roster for teams playing in the same division.

Under no circumstances will any player be permitted to play at a level below their age.

Any team wanting to protest a roster of their opponent should do so during the game in question. A referee must be asked to involve management at which time a roster will be pulled and players will be identified. Teams fielding players who are not on their roster will be forced to forfeit the game in question. A 3-0 win will be recorded for the other team.

PARTICIPANT WAIVERS

All participants in any programming at FSA are required to have a waiver on file with our front desk no later than the first scheduled date of participation. It is requested that waivers for a team be submitted with the roster as a packet. If an individual player is rostered on multiple teams, they will need to submit a waiver with each team’s roster. Waivers are valid from August 2010 - July 2011.  CLICK HERE FOR FORM

GAME CANCELLATIONS

Teams cancelling games after the season schedules have been published should expect that there will be no refunds offered for the game. We will do what we can to reschedule, however once leagues start we have very limited open time. There are no guarantees that these games will be made up.

It is rare that FSA will cancel games. In the event that this should happen due to inclement weather, power outages, etc, we will make every attempt to reschedule games, but this is not guaranteed. If we are unable to reschedule the game, your team will receive a $100 refund and a 0-0 score will be recorded in the league standings. In the event that we are able to reschedule the game and your team is unavailable on that day, neither team will be eligible for the refund.  This game will not be rescheduled and a 3-0 forfeit score will be recorded in favor of the available team.

FORFEITS

FSA reserves the right to remove any team/person from any league/program for failure to follow any of the policies and procedures outlined here without refund of deposits/session fees. Failure to follow any of the policies and procedures outlined here may also result in your team’s score being recorded as forfeits until your team is in good standing. Scores posted as forfeits will not be reversed.

If a roster is challenged by an opponent, the team being challenged will be required to forfeit the game if they are found to have non-rostered players playing in that particular game. The game will still be played, but a score of 3-0 will be awarded to the other team.  

Teams/players exhibiting overly aggressive play, fighting by players, coaches or parents, blatant fouls and repetitive displays of unsportsmanlike conduct are grounds for game suspension and forced forfeiture. Forfeiture based on this behavior is subject to the discretion of the staff and referees of FSA. Refunds will not be given for forfeited games for either team involved.

REFUNDS

Full refunds will be given in the event that a program/league/tournament does not have enough participants enrolled to occur which will result in cancellation of that a program/league/tournament. We will attempt to process all refunds within 2 weeks of the cancellation date.

Refunds will not be given on deposits to teams/individuals withdrawing on or after the posted registration deadline for the program/league/tournament of interest.

SCHEDULING REQUESTS

Please make note that we respectfully ask that all of your special scheduling requests are submitted in writing at the time of registration. We reserve the right to refuse any scheduling request submitted after the start of the season.

Scheduling requests will be taken into consideration based on the following prioritization. These requests are not guaranteed to be granted but we will always do our best to accommodate as many reasonable requests as possible.

1. Back to back games for coaches with multiple teams in the SAME age group

2. Back to back games for coaches with multiple teams in DIFFERENT age groups. This is sometimes particularly difficult because we schedule leagues for certain time frames, but we will try to accommodate this request whenever possible.

3. Specific days or time frames for games within the projected schedule. Please give as wide a time frame as possible (4 hours is preferred).

4. BYEs requested to allow a team to participate in a tournament will be taken into consideration only if these requests are submitted before the start of the season. Thereafter any team needing a bye for a weekend of out of town play will forfeit the game as well as their game fees. We cannot grant more than 1 BYE for any team through the course of a season.

Requests we CANNOT accommodate:

1. Games at a particular time every week. We are not able to grant any requests as specific as 2pm every Saturday.

2. Having your season shortened by any amount of games and the price prorated. Request such as these skew the schedule of all of the other teams in the league.

3. Requests for a BYE due to Spring Breaks, Winter Breaks, school dances, ACTs, Superbowl, team fundraisers, birthday parties, etc are likely not to be granted.

4. We request that if ONLY the coach of your team is going to be out of town for a game, you make arrangements to have someone fill in for your coach instead of asking to reschedule or for a BYE.

BYES

Please keep in mind when requesting a BYE, typically each session is scheduled respectively for the same number of weeks as you have games. Although this is a common request, a BYE affects not only your team but also all of the other teams in the league. Please when at all possible keep your requests for this option to a minimum.
