Hi Dave, could you help to clarify a rule regarding order states? Our teams allowed to have one to two players that aren’t in their border states? Would they need a special permission?
Rulebook §13.1(3) • TEAM REGIONS OF SSWC (on page 64)
A. Bordering States Rule (See states and bordering states and provinces list - pages 82-83):
1. All men’s 40+ to 70+ teams may be comprised of players from their home state or neighboring states (See illustration). See also §13.1(2)C.
2. All men’s 40+ to 70+ teams, EXCEPT teams from California, Arizona, Hawaii, Nevada and Oregon, may also draw up to two players from states on the same side of the Mississippi River as the home state of the team.
What is the rule for Canadian teams?
Mike ... See Rulebook §13.1(3)D.4. on page 65 ...
"..The Canadian provinces east of Manitoba are merged and known as the Eastern Canada region. The Canadian provinces west of Ontario are merged and known as the Western Canada region. These regions may draw players from their U.S. bordering states, but may not draw players from the other Canada region.."
There is a caveat to that rule; ..."EXCEPTION: Major Plus teams may draw up to four players from the other Canada Region pursuant to §13.1(2)C."
Dave thank you for clarifying. Much appreciated
