Dual Player Registration Clarification as it pertains to CJSL
With many new clubs joining CJSL and existing clubs adding more teams, we want to make sure all our clubs understand the dual registration rule as it applies to CJSL.
-
Players in CJSL CANNOT be dual registered on another CJSL club that is playing league games in CJSL. They can only be registered with one (1) CJSL Club.
-
Players in CJSL CAN be dual registered on another CJSL team if that team is playing in a higher level league (EDP).
-
(Ex. Team A (member of CJSL) is playing CJSL, and Team B (member of CJSL) is playing EDP, that player can then be dual registered and play for both teams. However that player, for State Cup, must select one team to play for, he or she cannot play on both teams for State Cup Games).
-
​
Remember 2 game day match cards must be printed out for your games. One must be given to the referee and the other to the coach from the other team. I attached to this email what a match day card looks like.
