Ineligible Players

Defined as a player who is playing under an assumed/false name OR is overage.

a) In the event that a team used an ineligible player in a game, which had been brought to the attention of the host committee and the ineligibility of the player has been confirmed, the offending team will automatically forfeit the game or games in which the ineligible player participated, and any points involved will be awarded to the non-offending team(s).

b) If both teams are at fault in game, no points will be awarded to either.

c) A request for a ruling on the eligibility is not considered to be a “protest”.

d) The ineligible player or players will be dropped immediately and further disciplinary action to the offending team(s) will be decided in accordance to the regulations, and/or tournament disciplinary committee if necessary.
