Team Registration Process & Captain Plays Free Policy

Captain,

Your team has been registered. Please allow up to 72 hours for your team page to be set up. Email BASL if you are not able to access your team page after 72 hours. Make sure to include your team name and division/season in all emails! 

You can log in to your team page by visiting the Team Pages link from the menu of www.basl.com, click the team name, and then team login on your team page. Your username is your e-mail and your pin is "changeme" if you do not already have a pin. Direct Link to Team Pages: https://www.basl.com/team-pages 

BASL operates as First Come, First Serve for those teams that have a complete PAID roster, and all required information uploaded to player profiles.  Having the minimum number of players approved on your roster is what BASL will look at in order to be part of scheduled games.   This must be 7 days prior to the league/division start date.

11v11 - needs to have 14 players registered prior to Captain requesting Play Free, and 7 registered so not to forfeit a scheduled game.

7v7 - needs to have 10 players registered prior to Captain requesting Play Free,  and 5 registered players so not to forfeit a scheduled game.

6v6 - needs to have 8 players registered prior to Captain requesting Play Free, and 4 registered players so not to forfeit a scheduled game.

5v5 - needs to have 6 players registered prior to Captain requesting Play Free, and 3 registered so not to forfeit a scheduled game.

CAPTAIN PLAYS FREE POLICY: 

** ONLY THE TRUE CAPTAIN IS ELIGIBLE TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS BENEFIT **

**Refunds of Fees Already Paid will NOT be allowed** Do NOT pay your fee, just make sure your team makes the cutoff and then apply 7 days prior to the start of the season.

BASL offers a "captain to play free" if all the required tasks below have been completed within 1 week of your first game. Do NOT pay your registration fee as a Captain, just make sure your team makes the cutoff and then apply 7 days prior to the start of the season.  **Refunds of Fees Already Paid will NOT be allowed**

Visit http://basl.com/captains for more information on how to be approved as a captain. We do not allow anyone else to play in lieu of the captain and only the TRUE captain is eligible to play for free.

Task 1 Proper Player Names  MAKE SURE TO SEARCH FOR EVERY PLAYER FIRST BEFORE REGISTERING A NEW PLAYER! You can also use the player pool to help! THIS IS VERY VERY IMPORTANT! WE DO NOT NEED DUPLICATE PLAYERS IN THE SYSTEM. IF YOU REGISTER A NEW PLAYER YOU WILL HAVE TO RE-ENTER ALL THEIR INFO, BUT IF YOU SEARCH AND ADD THEIR INFO WILL STILL BE IN FROM PREVIOUS SEASON (S)!

Task 2 Prepare and Create your player information: *If you are adding a new player to BASL, Name, City, ZIP, Email, Phone, DOB are now required fields.  Note that the Date Of Birth  MUST be entered when creating the player profile, after that only a BASL administrator can edit an incorrect DOB.  Note, that if a player makes their registration payment, the information they provide during their payment process will automatically update their player profile, including a recent player photo they provide.

Task 3 Recent Face Shot Picture: (No sunglasses, Not Hats, Only 1 person captured in the photo)  We do our best to crop up provided photos players provide by the player during their payment process.

Task 4 Clean up your roster list: *If you are a returning team within the same division, then we have cloned your team data from the previous season so if there are any players on your roster no longer needed please just delete them.

Task 5: Player payments: *note players who have paid their registrations will be be authorized by the league.  Make sure your players know which division your team is playing in along with your team name.  This way when they make their registration payment they get placed onto your team. 

*Players can ONLY be approved once we receive a payment if they are listed on your rosters

Captains are eligible to play for free on their team if they have what is considered to be a "proper" number of players (not including yourself) properly registered and paid for 7 days prior to the start of the season:

After completing the required tasks you must fill out the approval request form available at:

Click Here: Approval Request Form

Once you have completed all tasks and submitted the approval request BASL will approve you onto your team's roster.

Forfeit Policy and Procedures

Captains must submit a forfeit notification at least 24 hours in advance of the posted game time so that BASL can notify all parties involved.

SUBMIT FORFEIT NOTIFICATION - CLICK HERE!

- If a team forfeits without giving proper notice will be docked -2 points in the standings and their team will be placed on probation for the remainder of the season.

- If the team forfeits without adequate notification twice in one season they will be disqualified from the playoffs.

- Any team being disqualified from playoffs by reasons of forfeits has the option to appeal the disqualification and request to remain eligible for the playoffs. To file an appeal of playoff disqualification a $50 Forfeit Fine must be paid (Pay Fine Here) and a written request sent to basldiscipline@gmail.com pleading your case.

 If less than 24 hours until game time and you know you are still going to forfeit, please let the the other team know and email the league by filling out the form anyways.

Game Reschedule Request

Game Reschedule Policy:

• Click here to request a reschedule: Reschedule Request Form

Game Scheduling Preferences

Game Scheduling Preference Requests

A REQUEST CAN ONLY BE MADE UP TO THE GAME DAY OF WEEK 1 GAMES. ONCE THE FULL SCHEDULE IS CREATED, REQUESTS CANNOT BE HONORED.

Reminder "requests" are just that.  What you get scheduled depends on fields and times available and is also affected by other captains' submitted requests.

If you have a special request please get it in as soon as possible.  If you are requesting to have a bye week, we won't be able to accommodate that unless the schedule allows for a bye week.

Requests can only be made before the schedule is made.  Games cannot be rescheduled.

11v11 games are not adjusted to be scheduled around 7v7 game time-slots and visa versa.   

SCHEDULE PREFERENCES REQUEST

11v11 Check-in Procedures

 1v11  Check-in Procedures  please review.....

Captians, ensure each of your players bring proper identification to every one of your games!

Referees will be using the game day roster provided along with player ID galleries as those players authorized to play!  Specifically with 11v11 sanctioned games, if the player is not on our Team Gallery with a picture, DOB and State ID number, they will not be allowed to play even if they have a drivers license.

Ideally, BASL wants to see each team’s players all lined up individually with their identification to show the referee at formal checkin.   The BASL team gallery passes will be used by Referees and Field Marshals as the state requirement as always. The player’s drivers license will be the main form of acceptable ID if there is any question with team gallery supplied Picture, name, and Date Of Birth posted into the system.

Referees will work as a team to check each player individually for shin guards, and pictures and DOB.  Field Marshal will cross reference picture likeness on uploaded player file and date of birth.  Once the individual player has checked in, then they can be allowed to enter into the field of play.

Over 30’s cutoff is Dec31st of each year!  If the BASL player ID shows a different age, the players’s Florida Drivers License age trumps what BASL’s State ID says, field marshal will mark down the change so that the State ID system will be updated for the future.  Anything earlier/younger will cause automatic forfeit!  Captains be aware of who your players are and their ages before you allow them onto your team’s play of game, you are ultimately held responsible!

If there is mismatch on likeness of State ID picture but name and DOB are matching to the Drivers License, then player will need to upload a more recent photo.

If there are obvious mismatch between the player name with the player on the Game sheet, the team roster pictue gallery, and the player supplied photo id, they will not be allowed to play.

If there is mismatch on DOB but player name and photo are a match, then field marshal will take down the drivers license DOB and ensure the BASL player record is updated.

If players show up after the formal checkin, they are not allowed to step onto the field of play until they have checked in formally with the linesman or Field Marshal!  Players, just because you show up late, and have a jersey does not mean you are allowed to play.  Be warned as more than likely you will receive a card!  If your id is not matched on the game report it will be even worse for your team as a forfeit will happen along with additional game point deductions.

Paying at the field is not allowed. Pay at Register at least 72 hours before the game.  If you do not show up on the roster you must notify us 72 hours in advance.

Players must have a picture on the team gallery.  If you DO NOT HAVE A PICTURE on the TEAM GALLERY, then you CANNOT PLAY no matter what.  

If you need to adjust a photo we can recommend using the following photo cropping and sizing tool linked below:
