Summer Call-Up Information

Call-up players to a NCISL team

• to see what team can call-up from what other teams, check the "player loan" rules on the NCISL site
• 2012 info:
  • You can only call on players registered in the NCISL.
  • Any women's team can call on players from any other women's team.
  • Men can call on players from teams in divisions 1-above them or divisions below, but not from within the same division.
  • Fill in the "player loan" permit (under the "Games" tab) and give it to the ref with your game sheets before your game.
  • After the game, fill out the player loan info in your game report.

Call-up players to an OCSL team

• to see what team can call-up from what other teams, check the call-up table in the FAQ on the OCSL site under About/FAQs
• 2012 info:
  • rec. teams can call up players from any OCSL rec. team with a bigger division number so long as the player meets your age requirement (if you have one)
  • men can call on women but not vice-versa
  • W30+ can call on any of the WR teams and vice-versa.
  • The men's Masters (over-50) can call on any of the MR teams and vice-versa.
  • you can call up from any league considered to be less-skilled than the OCSL.
    That may include the NCISL and the RA league and others. You will have to check with the EODSA to find out.
• you can call-up a maximum of 3 players
• a player can be called up to your (or any other higher level team) a maximum of 3 times. This can be tricky. You need to be sure the player knows this.
• make sure the player brings his/her player card to your game!
• to call-up a player within the club, use the OCSL playing up permit. Look on the OCSL web site under Forms/play up permit. You need to get it signed by the team whose players you are raiding. (Get a blank signed at the beginning of the year and photocopy it when you need it.)
• to call up a player from another club within the OCSL or another league, you will need the Temporary Registration Permit (TRP) from the EODSA website. Look under Registration / forms / registration permits.
  • Get everything you need for the TRP set up at the beginning of the season:
    • Fill in all the general items on the form -- the club names and numbers, the team names and numbers.
    • Get the signature and card number of an exec on the club you are borrowing from. (If borrowing from the NCISL, you need the NCISL admin's signature -- Dawn Dinsdale in 2012)
    • Ask Spitfires if the exec will allow you to charge the club for your TRPs. If so, ask them to e-mail the EODSA with blanket approval for you. Then, you'll be able to scan/e-mail the forms to the EODSA and they'll email the stamped & approved form back; otherwise, you'll have to go to the office in person and pay for each one when you need it. (Cost $5.00 in 2012)
    • Example data from Lynwood so Lynwood W30+ players could play on WR1 in 2007:
      • Club name: Lynwood, number 0734
      • Team name: Lynwood Centennials, number 0734 W301
      • Check the "permit to play in a higher level"
      • Club name: Spitfires, number 0740
      • Team name: Spitfires WR1, number 0740 WR1 (Ask the club registrar for your team number or look on your official roster if you have it.)
      • League = OCSL, registration number 5117
      • Club executive name, signature and card number. The Lynwood president had no problem with signing a blank for me. So I copied and used it as often as I wanted. :)
        2013 note: The EODSA has this year allowed clubs to give coaches "signing authority". I assume you could ask them if a coach is allowed to sign for a club.
  • When you need a player for a game, copy your blank and fill in:
    • the card number and name of player playing up.
    • the dates
  • If you are allowed to charge the club for your TRPs and the club has cleared it with the EODSA, you can e-mail your filled out form to the EODSA. They will send back a stamped, approved copy. Print it.
  • If not, take your filled out form to the EODSA office and hand over $5.00 in return for 2 stamped copies.
  • In either case, give an approved copy to the ref.
  • If the player ends up not playing, e-mail the fact to the EODSA or take all the TRP copies back to the EODSA office & they'll refund your/the club's $5.00 and make sure that this game doesn't count against the 3 times/player maximum.
