  • STEP 1 - Activation (Pre-registration)
    • Activation and Player Protection
    EXISTING MEMBERS MUST ACTIVATE BY JAN 15 To Preserve Roster Protection Of Prior Year's Players.

    There is considerable turnover in the league each year. In order to allow players on teams not coming back to join other ENYTB teams we extend roster protection to non-activated teams til January 15 only. After Jan 15, all unactivated teams from the prior year are deleted, thereby making free agents of all their players from the prior year.

    Q What happens if your team gets deleted on 1/15 but you still want to come back?

    A You can still come back. The league will re-create your team by name and age but you will have to "relink" all your players, managers, coaches and contacts to your team online. In addition, between 1/15 and whenever you activate your team, your players are free to join any other ENYTB team they choose.

    NEW MEMBERS

    Once your team is activated, you are free to begin adding players to your ENYTB online roster. Once a player is legally placed on your online roster, the player can not play for another ENYTB team in your age division w/o a release from your club rep.
