LEGAL TEAM DEFINITION

There has been confusion (as usual at the beginning of the season ) as to how many people of each gender constitutes a legal team - I hope I can erase the confusion:


  1. Maximum number of players on the court at ANY ONE TIME is 6.
  2. At least 1 (one) female player must play. NO MORE THAN 4 MALE PLAYERS may be on the court at any one time playing (exception is the A League - they may have 5 male players and 1 female).
  3. Minimum of 4 players constitutes a legal team ( i.e. NO 3, 2 or 1 player teams are legal). 
EXAMPLES 1: Legal Teams
   
    1 female    3 males    for a total of   4 players.
    1 male      3 females  for a total of   4 players.
    1 female    4 males    for a total of   5 players.
    2 females   4 males    for a total of   6 players.
    3 females   3 males    for a total of   6 players.
    4 females   2 males    for a total of   6 players.
    4 females   1 male     for a total of   5 players.
    5 females   1 male     for a total of   6 players.
A League Only:
  • 5 males and 1 female for a total of 6 players
  • If no female player is available - only 4 male players may be on the court. 

    EXAMPLE 2: Non-Legal Teams

    5 males 1 female (B-E leagues).
    All 6 male team.
    All 6 female team.
    Any team with less than 4 players.
