NORCAL HOME GAME SCHEDULING
PROCESS OVERVIEW
Home Game Scheduling Steps
 Playing League notifies teams that play date schedule is posted.
 Team Manager’s reach out to each opponent to confirm times for games. This is required
by NorCal and is a critical first step.
 Once Team Manager has confirmed dates and times with opponents they fill out the
online “Home Games Request Form” ensuring that all info is filled out.
•
Any other method of submitting home game scheduling requests will not be processed.
•
Only home game requests using the official online request form will be processed.
 When requesting game times please consider available fields and game time slots.
 Once complete, the Team Manager or Club Representative submits their team’s request
to the JLYSSL NorCal Match Secretary. You will receive a confirming email that your
request has been received.
Home Game Scheduling Steps
 Once the EBUSC Match Secretary has successfully scheduled your game(s), the
designated “Team Officials,” will receive an automated notification from MSL stating that
your game has been published.
 Once a game has been officially published, Team Manager can then update the NorCal
master schedule.
 ANY changes to published games must first be negotiated and confirmed with your
opponents and get buy-in from NorCal. Once approved by NorCal contact the EBUSC
Match Secretary who will make the changes. For any changes use the same online form.
 You should allow at least for a 7-day lead time to process changes but no less than 96-
hours. This will allow for adequate time for rescheduling and to have referees re-sign up
for the matches.
