I.      A player may only register for one SAS team per league and may only play for that team, with the exception of permitting. (See 10.0 PERMIT PLAYERS)

Note: SAS has numerous leagues, and therefore players are allowed to register on multiple teams as long as they are different leagues. 

(See 2.0 TEAM ALIGNMENT & LEAGUE DIVISIONS for a complete list of our leagues.)

Also, players may only compete on one roster in a Provincial competition as per SSA rules. (See 43.0 PROVINCIAL SPECIFIC for additional information”)

iii)     Third Offence: Discipline hearing and possible suspension from the league.

* SAS reserves the right to increase this to a maximum of 5 games if it was determined the player was aware of the rule to register on one team per league.

Note: Players may only be registered on one team within one league. (See F. above as to the different leagues.) An offence is considered the number of occasions the player has been confirmed to be registered on two teams within the same league. It is not the number of games played.
