MR. ED ... Here are the relevant Rulebook provisions (on pages 66-67) that should answer your questions ...
__________

§13.2(4)AGE ELIGIBILITY AND GROUPING
.
B. Men’s 75+, 80+ and 85+ team roster composition age exceptions:
.
1. Men's 75+ age division teams may draw up to five underage players, all of whom must be 74 year olds.
2. Men’s 80+ age division teams may draw up to seven players aged 78 or 79, including not more than three 78 year olds.
3. Men's 85+ age division teams may draw up to ten players aged 83 or 84, including not more than five 83 year olds.

Dave. When you get a chance can you display the relevant rule for age protocols for 65’s? Does it matter if the tourney is a qualifier. People have told me that teams are allowed underage players if the tourney is not a qualifier? I don’t want to go there and risk a suspension.

There is not a relevant rule like these for age 65+ division teams ... Most likely, the person who told you that is referring to either a [1] recreation tournament where no results count as a qualifier for the teams or [2] the team is playing "exhibition", which is the other non-qualifier option ... Good luck!

Thanks Dave. I’m suppose to move up to a 65 team in November. The coach said since I turn 64 this month I will be eligible for 65’s after November 1st. Just to clarify my situation. Thanks
