Common use of Roster Composition Clause in Contracts

Roster Composition. In affirming the importance of providing community-based soccer opportunities for youth players, roster composition of MTOC Eligible Affiliated League teams from member leagues will conform to the following standards: For Grades 7/8 and younger: To be eligible for MTOC play, at least 75% of the players on a town’s/club’s submitted roster must be from that same league’s recognized Town Program organization. The MTOC Leagues Committee must approve any exceptions to this requirement. For Grades 9 and older (groupings to be based on the most current MTOC Eligible Affiliated League tournament rules): recognizing that the difficulty in forming teams increases as the player becomes older, town organizations/clubs may collaborate to create appropriately competitive soccer opportunities where they might not otherwise exist. In every instance, these collaborative teams must: 1. be registered with a member Town Program of the league they are representing; 2. must completely adhere to the Leagues Committee intra-league and inter-league player movement agreements; 3. must play a regular league schedule within a MTOC Eligible Affiliated League;
