NJYHL Rule 25 regarding Player Movement:

  1. Players shall not be permitted to play down a level. If a player is rostered with a 16U team, they cannot move to a 14U team after the conclusion of the short season. Under certain circumstances, with the express consent of the Commissioner, a player may be permitted to play down. A possible forfeit may apply with no fine.
  2. All player moves must be submitted on the Player Substitution form found on the NJYHL website and approved by the Commissioner prior to the game being played.
  3. All approved roster moves must be made in GameSheet PRIOR to the game being played. Failure to do so will result in a $50.00 fine to the offending team for each offense.
  4. No moves are permitted after December 31st of the playing season. Extenuating circumstances will be reviewed by the Commissioner. Emergency goaltenders are exempt from this rule.
  5. Only those players whose names appear on an approved USA Hockey roster URL that has been uploaded in GameSheet may participate in League games. The first violation of this rule shall result in the forfeit of the game and a fine of $1,000 assessed to the offending team. A second violation of this rule shall result in the immediate suspension of that team from league play for the remainder of the season. All games scheduled with that team, played or unplayed, shall be declared forfeits. Other teams in the division will have the option of whether to honor any remaining scheduled games with the offending team. Each forfeit carries a fine of $1,000.
  6. There shall be no appeal of forfeitures that are awarded because of registration and/or rostering violations.
