Common use of Practice Agreement Clause in Contracts

Practice Agreement. It is mutually agreed that whenever a Player who is not signed to a C.F.L. Standard Player Contract practices with a Member Club, the said Player and Member Club shall be required to execute an Agreement in the form as set out in Appendix “I” attached hereto and shall be considered to be on the Member Club’s Practice Roster. The minimum compensation payable to a Player signed to a Practice Roster Agreement shall be $750.00 per week, plus housing or a housing allowance. The housing or housing allowance shall not be counted against the salary expenditure cap. A Player who is not signed to a C.F.L. Standard Player Contract or a Practice Agreement in the form attached hereto and marked as Appendix “I” shall be prohibited from attending a practice of a Member Club. Notwithstanding the terms of the Practice Agreement, if a Player who is signed to a Practice Agreement is entitled to receive compensation based upon the minimum compensation as described in Article 9 of this Agreement per season or more, any such Player shall be deemed to be on the Roster of the Member Club for the purposes of all benefits described in the C.F.L. Standard Player Contract and this Agreement. Any such Player shall participate in and receive all benefits in accordance with the C.F.L. Standard Player Contract and this Agreement and without restricting the generality of the foregoing, this participation and these benefits shall include Pension Plan benefits, medical plan and life insurance benefits and injury protection, but shall not include post season compensation. If a Member Club elects to execute a C.F.L. Standard Player Contract in accordance with the terms of a Practice Agreement, it shall forthwith provide the Player with an executed copy of the same and shall be required to pay the Player for the next game (regular season, playoff, or Grey Cup) played by the said Member Club. If a Player who is signed to a Practice Agreement notifies the Member Club of termination of the Practice Agreement, the Practice Agreement shall continue in effect for forty-eight (48) hours during which the Member Club may execute the C.F.L. Standard Player Contract previously executed by the Player and deliver the same to the Player, failing which the C.F.L. Standard Player Contract shall have no force or effect. If the Member Club executes the C.F.L. Standard Player Contract previously executed by the Player and delivers the same to the Player, the Member Club shall pay the Player for the next regular season, playoff or Grey Cup game played by the Member Club. A Member Club shall complete the Practice Agreement with respect to compensation payable prior to presentation to a Player for execution. Compensation payable in accordance with the terms of the Practice Agreement shall not be deferred in any way. During any season, a Member Club shall not sign a Player to a Practice Agreement prior to the day before the day of the final cutdown of the Roster during Training Camp. Practice Roster players shall be paid during bye weeks, regardless of practices. Should a Member Club continue into the post season, Players on the Practice Roster shall be paid at the rate set out in their Practice Agreement (and not less than the minimum compensation set out in this Article) until such time as the Member Club is eliminated from the post season.
