Weekly Player Drop/Transfer/Refund Deadline
Requests must be made by Wed 7pm
Refunds are based on eligibility and not based on whether the player has played or not.
No refund request will be accepted or considered after Jan 1, for the Fall/Winter Season.
A transfer request must be made by the player.
A transferred player needs to sit out one game and pay a $5 fee.
Players transferred AFTER the last Wed (paper) or the last Fri (online) of Jan will be INELIGIBLE for the postseason tournament.
Captains, the registration portal will reset on or about November 24th and everyone is required to sign a new waiver prior to the next scheduled game on December 7th. Waivers can be signed on the portal or paper copies emailed to TMSL or dropped off at The Shop. Players who only paid $75 for the 1st half must also pay their second half $75 during this same period. Teams must have 11 registered players (fully paid with waivers) by Friday, December 5 at 5pm to play on Sunday.
Week 13 Games Canceled
All games for Jan 27th have been canceled and will be re-scheduled later in the season, schedule permitting.
Tournament Schedule
The game schedule for the quarterfinals of the Metro Cup has been posted.

Player Registration
With the introduction of on-line registration and the option of presenting to the match referee either a ASSA/TMSL player pass or alternative ID, there is some confusion about what is required and when for a player to play on any given Sunday match.
The TMSL By-laws are very clear.
First, we play by the rules of USSF and ASSA, our National and State affiliation, respectively. These rules require a player pass for every registered player. Although team captains may choose to use the pass or an alternative ID (driver’s license, etc.) on Sunday the rules still require the creation of a player pass credential. This requires every potential player to provide to TMSL a passport quality photograph of himself. Absent a player pass, no player is eligible to play in a TMSL or State sanctioned match. There are NO exceptions.
Second, in order to play on Sunday, the by-laws are clear – see Section V, paragraph 10 “Games – All players must be registered no later than Wednesday in order to play on Sunday”. Stated differently, you cannot register on-line on Friday and play on Sunday. You cannot play on Sunday unless your on-line or paper registration, including a photograph, is completed no later than the Wednesday prior to your desired Sunday match.
No TMSL Board Member, or the State Registrar, has the authority to override the TMSL By-laws.
