Rescheduling of League Games
To All Coaches and Managers,
Rescheduling of games requires a lot of time and effort to make happen and create opportunities for problems later in the season. Just changing one game could affect as many as 70 people, disrupt referee assignments and create an unfair advantage for another team not involved in the change. The implementation of having the teams’ schedule their own games should have eliminated any rescheduling of matches. Coaches and mangers were responsible for coordinating with your team before the scheduling meeting. Below are guidelines for requesting a game be rescheduled.
Guidelines for Rescheduling of League games;
Please remember that ALL games that you are trying to reschedule must be approved by the league. Approval of the change is indicated by the change on the website schedule. To get the game you are trying to reschedule approved follow the guidelines below. The game can only be approved if both teams agree on the change.
1) The team requesting the rescheduling must contact the coach or team manager of the team you are trying to reschedule the game with and agree on a change.
2) Both teams must agree upon a new game date, location and approximate time before the league will approve the rescheduling of the game. Adjustments to the exact location and time may have to be made by the league due to already scheduled games and referee availability.
3) Both teams will need to send an email to the league stating they agree to the change.
4) If for ANY REASON the game you are rescheduling can not be played by the end of the season, the team requesting the change will receive a FORFEIT LOSS. (ie rescheduled game gets canceled for weather)
5) Games that are rescheduled and approved shall incur the following fees:
a. 48 hours prior to the scheduled match - $15 a game re-scheduling fee
b. Within 48 hours of the scheduled match - $30 a game re-scheduling fee
c. Within 24 hours of the scheduled match - $30 a game re-scheduling fee + referee fees
Referee Fees For The Coastal League
Referee fees are listed below. The fees will be the
same for every Coastal League game, no matter where you
play in the state.
IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO HAVE THE EXACT AMOUNT
FOR EACH REFEREE. A good way to do this is to
have a separate envelope for each referee and the
assistant referee.
REFEREES DO NOT MAKE CHANGE.
The amounts listed below are based on each team
paying for ½ of the referee fee and the total fee
for one assistant referee.
