Weather Policies
If the league is disrupted by winter weather conditions, the league will reschedule the impacted games. While we will do our best to ensure games are rescheduled to regular game time, this may not always be possible. As a result, rescheduled games may take place as double headers, on alternate nights of the week or long weekends.
Rescheduling Policy
Request made prior to October 17
Teams can make scheduling requests up until the schedule starts being made on October 17. We will do our best to accommodate. Please note that making a request for a specific weekend off may result in your team playing a doubleheader another weekend, or on Family day weekend.
Requests made October 17 onward
Requests made from October 17 onward will only be accommodated if:
a) The requesting pays for the cost of the field time OR provides their own 60-minute block of 7 v 7 field time for the game to be played
b) There is agreement from both team officials to reschedule the game (see 'How do I reschedule a game?' below)
How do I reschedule a game?
Rescheduled requests cannot be made less than three (3) days before the game
- Contact your opponent's coach to see if they are willing to reschedule. This can be done in the "My Team --> Contact Other Captains" feature of the website
- Please note our only availability at this time is over the Holidays and Family Day Weekend.
- Once both coaches have agreed to reschedule, forward the request to admin@coliseum.ca. Please note the game will only be rescheduled if there is agreement from both coaches in the email chain
- Teams will receive email confirmation with the new date and time once it has been approved
Refund / Cancellation Policy (Teams)
For team registration cancelations prior to the start of the league, the team deposit of $300 is forfeited. For teams that cancel after the start of the season, all monies are forfeited. To request a refund / cancelation please contact the admin team via email at admin@coliseum.ca.
Team Roster Policy
Any team that does not have enough players listed on their roster to field a team may be forced to forfeit the game, and any players not listed may be prevented from playing in the game. We will not enter into any correspondence or issue any refunds to teams or players prevented from taking part in games after failing to adhere to these policies.
Coach and Team Manager Instructions for adding players to their roster:
- Login to the website, and go to the players list for your team. From there you should see the option to add players, please enter each of your players’ information diligently
- Rosters much match the information submitted to EOS (or SOSA or SO, if applicable) and align with the Power Up system (or Quebec equivalent).
- If is the responsibility of the Coach and Team Manager to ensure that all players either on the roster or substitutes are informed and adhere to these policies.
Forfeit Policy
There are no fines for forfeiting a game provided the league and opponents are given at least six (6) hours notice. While we appreciate that on occasion it may be difficult to field a squad for a given game, the forfeiting team's coach or team manager must notify the league. Simply not turning up to a game without some form of notice is unacceptable. If you have exhausted all avenues to be able to field team, we suggest the following procedure:
- Make an attempt to contact your opposing team manager and coach. This can be done in the "My Team --> Contact Other Captains" feature of the website.
- Drop an email to the league via admin@coliseum.ca stating that your team cannot make it.
Always try to give your opponent and the league as much advance notice of a forfeit as possible, this gives us more time to find a replacement team, or at the very least saves the opponent a drive to the dome. Any team that forfeits a game automatically receives a 3-0 score line against them. Teams that consistently forfeit games may be kicked out of the league.
