Coach,
Is your roster current? Are there existing players on your roster who no longer plays with your team? These questions are extremely important. I would like to introduce to you...PROJECT CLEANUP. In the next 72 hours please find time to review your roster and get it cleaned up. On Thursday, February 11, 2010 at midnight all rosters from Northeast Florida to South Florida will be LOCKED. As a result, any changes made to your roster after Thursday will need to be done by the state office.
Any changes made to your roster starting this Friday will need to be done by our office. You will not be allowed to make changes to your roster without approval. This rule has been implemented to monitor all roster moves and additions. Please take time to review the Florida Supplemental Rules in addition to the USSSA Playing Rules & Bylaws located on our website at www.FloridaTravelBall.com.
In the mist of everything, the simple task of cleaning your roster can't be lost.
- Review the Florida Supplemental Rules which are attached to the USSSA Playing Rule and Bylaws on our website at www.FloridaTravelBall.com.
- Remove all players who are no longer a part of your team. No player will be allow to legally show up on two rosters within the same age division.
- Make sure that your player's first name, last name (no middle names, nick names, shortened names, slang names, initials, prefixes or suffixes are allowed) and date of birth MUST be listed EXACTLY as they appear on his original certificate pursuant to USSSA Rule 3.03.
- All player demographics MUST be completed on online roster. Include player's name, DOB, address, phone number and email address.
- Please NOTE: Once rosters are locked teams are subject to classification changes after review without notice. Players will NOT be allowed to jump from one class to another at no time during the remainder of the season. However, players are allowed to always move up in class but can not return to original class.

- F11.02.A - If PLAYER moves from Team A to Team B, Team A msut remove player from roster. This move will be considered player's 1st MOVE.
- F11.02.B - If PLAYER moves from his current Team B to Team C or back to Team A he will NO LONGER be eligible to play with any other team in this age division. This will be player's 2nd and FINAL roster move for season.
- F11.03 - After March 1st, team rosters will FREEZE once team qualifies for World Series berth regardless if they accept berth or not. Team must finish in top 25% of any World Series qualifier for roster to become FROZEN.

It is your responsibility to review the USSSA Player Rules & Florida Supplemental Rules. Ignorance is not an excuse to not comply with any of these rules. All cases will be handled fair but FIRM.
