Dodgeball - Team Registration Process & Policies
PLEASE READ ALL OF THE FOLLOWING BEFORE SUBMITTING.
YOU (AS CAPTAIN) ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR KNOWING ALL THE INFORMATION WITHIN THIS PACKET and
FEES INCURRED BY YOUR TEAM!
HOW TO REGISTER…
You may register your team by submitting the form found on the last page of this packet. In
order to reserve a spot, you must provide full payment at the time of signup. Any registration without
appropriate payment will not be accepted. We accept MasterCard or VISA only. American Express or
Discover cannot be used. If you are paying by check, your team space is not guaranteed until we have that
check in hand.
Any team not submitting a complete registration form in time to make “cut-offs” or any team
registering after the initial number of accepted teams has been reached will be placed on a wait list.
Although many teams may eventually be taken off the waitlist I strongly suggest turning in all the appropriate
info ASAP as space will fill fast. Credit Card charges and Checks for waitlist teams will be held until a space
opens up.
Early Registration Discount:
Sign up your team at least one month prior to the start date and SAVE $50 off the team fee.
Individual payments for team fees:
Individual payments for a team will not be accepted, unless collected by the captain and all sent together.
Individuals calling to pay their portion of the team fee will not be taken. Entire team fee (including nonmember fees) is the responsibility of the captain. Payments from captains will be accepted in the form of
cash, check(s), and/or singular credit card. We do realize how difficult it can be to collect from teammates
in advance. If you collect individual checks from them in advance, but do not have them all at time of
deadline, send in what you have and put the remainder on credit card or separate check. To ease your
burden, we do recommend collecting from your teammates prior to the league. This way, you have a
commitment from them, and you do not have to front all of the money. You should have knowledge of who
your non-members are prior to the start of the league. Make sure to collect the $25 non-member fee from
these players when collecting their team portion.
What if team fees are not paid on time:
Failure to pay fees prior to league may result in the team being dropped to waitlist status and replaced by
first team on waitlist. If no teams are on the waitlist, teams with an outstanding team fee balance will not
receive their first game time until their balance is paid in full. Once the full season schedule has been set,
unpaid teams will lose their opportunity to play in the session.
ONCE YOUR REGISTRATION HAS BEEN PROCESSED…
TEAM CONFIRMATION INFORMATION
Upon confirmation of registering a team, the team captain will receive 3 separate emails.
i. Team confirmation: This will include an attachment that has basic details and timetables for
the league
ii. A payment receipt: You will now receive an e-mail receipt for any and all payments made.
1. If your team is waitlisted – you will note that the “Total Paid” says zero because you
have not been charged.
iii. Team Roster Link: You now have full control of your roster up to the roster deadline. You will
be sent a unique link and password to log into your team’s roster. You will need the following
information for every player so that we can electronically confirm their membership status. All
information is REQUIRED.
1. First and last name
2. Email address
3. Birth date
4. Phone number
5. Gender
6. Membership status
Spelling and accuracy are important; otherwise the system will view them as a non member and
you will be charged a non-member fee for that person. Our advice is to send a request out to
your teammates for this info sooner rather than waiting until the last minute.
You can make changes and upload new rosters to BSSC as changes occur. Non member fees will
be processed on the roster lock date (3 weeks after league starts). At that point you will be charged for
anyone who is “still” not a BSSC member. One of the benefits is that those people who join after the
season starts but before the deadline will no longer slip through the cracks.
PLEASE DO NOT DELETE THE “Team Roster Login Information” EMAIL AS YOU WILL NEED THE
PASSWORD PROVIDED WITHIN IT TO MAKE ANY ROSTER CHANGES.
NON-MEMBER FEE INFORMATION

Non-member fees are charged after the third week of the season
(this will not necessarily be after your team’s third game)
1) Non-member fees: Rosters are to be submitted using the online link mentioned above (failing to
complete the form can result in your team being removed from the league and/or charged the
maximum number of non-member fees). Rosters will be electronically checked against BSSC’s
database to verify members/non-members and captains will be notified of the membership status of
their players at the first game. Payment for non-member fees will be processed at the conclusion of
the 3rd week of the league (this is not necessarily your team’s third game). At this time, any
outstanding balances will be charged to the credit card provided. If no roster is given, a maximum
non-member fee will be charged (15) and the team could be eliminated from the league.
2) Membership status – To avoid the $25 non-member fee, a player must be a member for the
duration of the session. A person’s membership status can be found on the roster that is sent out to
the league on the first night of play. For BSSC members, the email address you provide on your team
roster MUST match the email address the person has on file with BSSC.
a. Memberships that expire during the session: If they do not renew before the roster
deadline (By renewing for $50, it will extend their membership for one full year from the
present expiration date), the captain will be charged the $25 non-member fee.
b. Non-members wishing to join BSSC: To avoid the $25 non-member fee, a player must join
BSSC ($65 for a full year) during the first 3 weeks of the session. Once the $25 fee is paid, it
will not be refunded to the captain, the player must pay the $25 to the captain directly and they
can no longer apply the $25 toward a membership.
c. Roster changes are allowed up to the 3rd week of the session.
BSSC POLICIES –
1) Forfeit Policy –
Forfeiting in advance – if you know your team is going to forfeit and not show up, you must contact
BSSC by 2pm the day of the league. Calling BSSC and leaving a message is NOT acceptable notice, you
must reach someone. If you leave a message or send e-mail it is not considered notification unless you
receive a reply. Failure to do so will result in forfeiting all matches and your team will be ineligible for league
playoffs and/or removed from the remainder of the schedule. If you notify BSSC on time your team will be
given losses for all scheduled matches, but no further penalty. Our goal will then be to update the evening
schedule (taking out the missing team) so that all teams get to play their allotted number of games.
Forfeiting at game time – if your team fails to have enough players to play, but at least 1 member of your
team is present there is no penalty (other than loss of game or games). Members that are present should
then mix with the work team and/or opponent and play a scrimmage.
2) Refund Policy
a) Greater than 21 days prior to start of league a refund of amount paid will be given, less $50 service
charge.
b) Within 21 days of start of league... NO REFUND will be given unless league is full and a suitable
replacement can be made. If replaced, a refund will be given, less a minimum $50 service charge.
c) Within 7 days of start of league…NO REFUND.
3) Sportsmanship Policy –
Adopted by the Boston Ski & Sports Club 6/21/05 (Revised 04/05/07)
A primary goal of the Boston Ski & Sports Club is to provide its participants with a fun and pleasurable sporting experience. This experience
begins with the arrival at the field/gym/court and continues through the game and subsequent post game activities. We recognize that the
nature of sports in and of itself is competitive. Therefore, we have established rules, which dictate how a game is to be pla yed. These rules
include both on field and off field behavior. There is more to sports than winning and losing. Participation in sports is an experience. The
benefits of fair play, exercise, teamwork, and camaraderie that exist in our sports leagues far outweigh any win or loss that may appear on a
Schedule and Standings page. There is neither a time, nor a place in any BSSC sports league for any individual(s) to behave in an
unsportsmanlike manner. No matter what the outcome of a play or a game, good sportsmanship MUST be observed at all times.
All persons, participating in a Boston Ski & Sports Club (BSSC) sanctioned sports activity, should be aware of and must adhere to the following
policy.
In its simplest terms, a good sportsman is defined as someone who not only enjoys playing the game, but enhances the enjoymen t of those
around them, be it teammates, competitors, officials, or spectators. Any action that detracts from this enjoyment is deemed u nsportsmanlike.
Therefore, any participant who attempts to or intends to lessen the enjoyment of others will be considered in violation of this policy.
Examples of unsportsmanlike activities include, but are not limited to…

verbal or physical abuse of fellow participants

intimidation / aggressive play

hostile language or action directed toward a BSSC game official, a BSSC employee, a BSSC representative or any other game
participant
Violators of this policy can expect to be immediately ejected from the game and be required to leave the playing area in a timely fashion.
Subsequent penalties may include, but are not limited to:

Suspension

Expulsion from the league

A ban from further BSSC activities
The degree to which a person is reprimanded is at the sole discretion of BSSC.
It is our sincere hope that this policy will be an effective deterrent to poor behavior and help to ensure the continuing existence of fun and safe
leagues.
