Interchange players
Teams can identify 3 interchange players on their team registration lists. These players will mainly be in a substitute position for the higher graded team.
To keep these players motivated and their fitness up to standard, they may play down a grade as an interchange player.
Interchange players can be altered, but written notice must be given to the Executive Officer before the players play in the lower grade.
Dispensations
Dispensations to allow players to field players outside of this rule may be granted on a case by case basis
i.e. where resources are stretched: teams sharing goalies, teams in the same grade sharing players.
Dispensation requests are required in writing (email will suffice) to the Senior Competition Committee (in lieu of the committee, the Senior
Chairperson. The Executive Officer or President can deputise if the Senior Chairperson is unavailable).
*Dispensations & breaches will be considered on the basis of the competition rules, common sense and the spirit of fairness.
(Ignorance of the interchange rule will not be considered as sufficient excuse where a breach has occurred outside the above considerations)
*Team registrations, dispensations and breaches will be especially monitored during trophy rounds.
*The full competition rules can be found on the THA website under "THA Forms & Policies"
