Website Tracks Over-Aged Players


As every ENYTB member probably knows, ENYTB allows teams to use up to three over-aged players provided the players are only one year older than the team.

NOTE:
13 yo players can NOT pitch on the smaller fields used at 12U.
11 yo players can NOT pitch on the smaller fields used at 10U.

Furthermore, by taking advantage of this age loophole, teams sacrifice their eligibility for winning berths to sanctioned tournaments via regular season standings. Such teams can maintain their eligibility for winning these berths via the June Madness tournament provided they do NOT use the over-aged players in that tournament.
======================================================================
Any team using over-aged players is designated with a "+" at the end of their team name.

In addition, there are two other ways to verify whether your opponent is legally using over-aged players:

(1) Online Line-up Card - is available to every team for every game on their schedule. This line-up card is accessed in either of two ways: via a link on every game listing (this link vanishes once the date/time of the game has passed); and, via the game report function.

Each lineup card lists the details of that game as well as the team logos and all players on either team's roster. Teams can set their batting order before leaving home by selecting, from a list consisting of all players on their rosters, a player by name for each spot in the order and assigning that spot a defensive position.

Beginning 2013, the line-up card has been extended to include each player's age, in parentheses, next to the player's name.

(2) Also beginning 2013, you can find the total number of over-aged player's on each team's ENYTB roster by viewing the "Team Deadlines" summary report at http://www.enytb.com/admin/rostreport.php
