LIAHL PLAYER MOVEMENT RULES AND REGULATIONS

N. Player And Coach Movement and Regulations

Releases shall be granted to any individual on any level AAA, AA, A that has submitted a formal

letter of Request of Release to the President or Governor of the organization he or she wishes to leave,

within the time specified, provided that player has met his/her financial obligations. This timeframe shall

commence at the conclusion of the NYSAHA Pee Wee Tournament for Mite, Squirt, and Pee Wee

age levels. This timeframe will commence at the conclusion of the National tournaments for

Bantam, 16U, and 18U age levels.

An approved release allows the individual to tryout out for only one team at a time during its

tryout period. The release form shall be kept by the organization and not returned unless that player cut

from the team.

No player shall be allowed on ANY tryout ice unless he or she has the original copy of the

release given to him or her by their former organization.

Players with a valid release form shall be allowed to try out for ONLY ONE organization at a

time. An acknowledgement form must be completed and signed by the player and parent/guardian

requesting the release attesting that they are aware of and have read all rules contained in Section

“N” herein. If a player is found to be trying out for more than one team at the same time, the

players/parents will be required to attend a hearing before the LIAHL Disciplinary Committee. The

acknowledgement form can be found in the GLOSSARY.

members by personal choice of players and/or parents. However, it is intended to prohibit raiding by one

purpose of depleting the other member(s) of personnel and the formation of a super team.

No member of the LIAHL shall accept a player into their program who was rostered by another

member of the LIAHL in the previous season without the express permission of the member and former

team. Recreation League players and players moving up to Junior are specifically excluded.

Any player, parent or coach who attempts to circumvent the player movement rules,

including recruitment violations(s) as defined herein will automatically be suspended for the

remainder of the season or for any period of time as determined by the LIAHL disciplinary panel.

After a player/parent and association signs the NYSAHA Player Association

Commitment Form, said player will not be permitted to move to another association until the

conclusion of the season as defined herein, absent extenuating circumstances. This rule applies

to pre-season brush-ups and clinics. Any player wishing to attend a pre-season brush-up/clinic
