Admission Rules

Admission to the MOTHERRS League is based on the following rules:

• Skaters must be age 40 or over on the date of the first regular season game. (Goalies can be any age.)
• Currently the league has eight teams consisting of 11 skaters and one goalie. Therefore the league is limited to a total of 96 players.
• Players will be accepted in the following order. (Note that if your payment does not arrive by the deadline then your seniority is lost for that session.):
  1. You played in the previous season based on below:
     1. Fall session - If you played the previous Winter session you will be guaranteed a slot.
     2. Winter session - If you played the previous Fall session you will be guaranteed a slot.
     3. Summer session - Based on seniority. Playing in this session does not guarantee a slot in the Fall session. It does count in the total number of seasons played.
     4. In summary, if you continually play in the Fall and Winter sessions then you will always have a slot in the Fall and Winter sessions.
  2. You played in a past season or seasons in the MOTHERRS League. Ties will be broken in the following order:
     1. The number of seasons played (including summers.)
     2. When I received your payment.
  3. You have never played before in our league. Priority is based on when I received your check.

• Checks are usually not cashed until the week before the season begins.
• Checks are not cashed if you have not been accepted into the upcoming session.
• At this time players who skip a session or more for injuries or other circumstances will be re-admitted based on the rules above. There is no special re-admission. This is done to ensure that players who play in the Fall and Winter sessions do not lose their seniority to any other players.
