Schedules and gamecards are not mailed to team contacts.  This information is all available and can be printed online.

Spring Schedule  - You can find your team schedule on your website team page and on the Scoreboard  link found on our homepage where it can be printed.  You can find and print the field directions for your team’s games from the Map Games link on your team page.  You can also use the Fields link on our homepage to find and print individual field directions for home field numbers that are listed next to each team on the Scores/Schedule mentioned above.

Gamecards - These are for your Home games and should be provided by the Home team to the referee at each game along with the Game Rules page that prints with the Gamecard.  These cards should be printed by the team contact from the Team Page when logged in using the Game Card link next to each game listing.  The roster for both teams and most game information will be automatically completed when the gamecard is printed.  Teams must line out/delete any players listed on the roster who will not be participating in each game.  This is mandatory and especially important to justify the use of Guest Players if used.  Gamecards should be printed within the week prior to a game for accurate roster and game rule updates. 

BYE Games for Divisions with 5, 7 or 9 Teams -  Divisions that have an odd number of teams (5, 7, or 9) require that one team has a BYE game each week.  The schedule that is found on the Scoreboard link has a listing of the make up games to be played for those BYE games and the instructions for scheduling them.  These games need to be scheduled by 5/12/12.  If you only see 6 or 7 games listed for your team then you have BYE games to schedule.

Please note that the Game Change link on the team page game listings now includes the options for both the Game Change and Game Time Changes.

 

Instructions & Items for Attention

 

1.  From now thru Saturday March 17th each team can submit up to 5 Game Time Change requests that have been agreed to by both teams.  You can now also change a game to the Saturday of the scheduled game weekend with the Game Time Change request.  (You cannot change the game to the visiting team’s field or to a date outside the scheduled game weekend but must use a regular Game Change for that if needed).  This is strictly a voluntary program to attempt and assist teams with scheduling issues concerning coaches, fields, events, etc.  Teams have the right to deny any time change requests they may receive that could interfere with their established schedule for any reason (field availability, player’s schedules, coaches’ schedules, etc).  The requesting team would then have to use one of their 2 game changes to change the game if still desired. 

Once teams agree to a game time change the requesting team contact should log in and go to their team page and click on the GAME CHANGE button located on the right side of each game listing on the team page.  Complete and submit the Game Time Change form for approval.  This program will end on March 17th so our referee assignors can complete their schedules and assigning of referees for the season.

2.  All Game Change forms are processed on our website and must be submitted to the league office by the end of the  4th  week of scheduled games for the season (05/12/12).  You can still request game changes for weeks 6 thru 8, however those forms must also be submitted by the 05/12/12 deadline.   The make up date must be on the request when submitted since “TBA” will not be accepted.  See Item D on the Change Form Instruction page for help if you are having difficulties in contacting/agreeing with the opposing team regarding a game change and are approaching the 7 day submitting deadline. Our League Mediator will assist you before you miss the deadline and are subject to a forfeit.

GAME CHANGE FORM INSTRUCTIONS:  Team contacts should log in using your recorded email address and the “Team Password” provided to you by your club manager.  From the Club Page click on your team name in the team list.  On the team page you will see your schedule.  If a game change is allowed there will be a link “Game Change” in the action column.  To request a game change click on this link.  Game changes must be submitted at least 7 days prior to the scheduled game or make up date whichever comes first.  Before you submit the game change you must have spoken first with the opposing team and received their agreement on the game change. Your game change request and opposing teams will be shown below your game schedule.   NOTE: You can access your team page without logging in but you will not be able to schedule game changes.  The system will also not accept game change requests past the 7 day and 05/12/12 deadlines. 

3.  The “INSTRUCTIONS” link/page on our website (iwsl.com) can assist with answers to your questions concerning completing online player adds and releases, forms, etc.

4.  Female guest players are allowed in IWSL games that are rostered to other IYSA league teams within the same club.  The normal IWSL guest player rules apply to use of these players.  The Guest Player rules can also be found printed on the bottom of each gamecard.

5.  All U13 and U14 teams are now allowed a maximum of 6 guest players per game.

6.  Please use e-mail instead of our voicemail to contact us whenever possible to request forms or have questions answered.  We check the messages twice daily Monday thru Friday.    OFFICE@IWSL.COM

7.  You can verify your Referee Assignor and his/her phone number on the Referee Assignor page of our website.  We request that all clubs have one designated person to coordinate communications with your referee assignor.  Do not allow each individual team contact/coach to be contacting your designated referee assignor.

8.  Service Providers will be open beginning Tuesday April 3rd for player and coach passes to be issued while you wait.  See the “SERVICE PROVIDERS” link/page on the left side our website homepage (iwsl.com) for the office days and hours of operation along with the address and directions, etc.

10. In case of games shortened by rain, weather, etc., they will be considered official once the first half has been completed. (The second half does not have to begin).  If a complete league wide rainout of Sunday games should occur during the season, a Game Reschedule link will appear on your team pages (in place of the Game Change link/button) by the affected games scheduled on that date.  You will use that link to request reschedule of the game when agreed to by the teams involved.
