Sub Rules
SUBSTITUTION-
- Captain may substitute a player during league games only. You must have your complete registered team for Playoffs unless given approval from the director due to injury or illness. (see Medical Substitution)
- Captains may use a player from another team or find an outside sub within their division.
- Players may play up a division if asked by the advance but upper divisions may not play down.
- The captain can bring in a sub or player exchange anytime up to game start time as long as it adheres to guidelines.
- If a substitute and the player they are replacing both show up, only the team player will be allowed to play.
- Once a substitute player has played on a team, they are still welcome to substitute for another team later in the season, if needed. A sub is not tied to one particular team. A player exchange (or replacement) is tied to one team, but may still serve as a substitute
- minimum of 3 players from the original roster + 2 subs (1 from another team and 1 from outside who has played in ACES) is the required amount for a team to play a game
Playoff Subs
- Substitution for teams missing (1) player can be pulled from team who did not qualify for playoffs.**
- Substitution for teams missing (1) player can be pulled from a team who has lost their playoff matchup.
- ADV/Upper Team can pull a player from a losing team in lower division. Higher division players cannot play down a division.
- ALL SUBS MUST be lower or equal skill of player being replaced. Requests for subs must be submitted to info@acesintexas.com and all subs from losing team during playoffs must be approved by on-site ACES staff.
******Medical Substitutions – in case of an injury, you are allowed to get a substitution, but the player still needs to be at least 2 games in regular season but must follow the substitution section. The injured player will not be allowed to return to the match.
