1.31 REQUEST FOR RECREATIONAL PLAYER REPLACEMENT/RELIEF
The rational for this Policy is to ensure that a Recreation (House/"C”) team wishing to attend a recreation tournament during the official BC Hockey Christmas Break or at the end of a season that finds itself without sufficient players is able to participate. Prior to relief being granted under this Policy, the team must avail itself of its registered Hockey Canada affiliates.
Should the team then find itself without sufficient numbers, it may apply to BC Hockey for relief as follows:
1) Relief granted only if the team finds itself with 12 or fewer skaters or no goaltender.
2) Written request for relief must be submitted by the MHA President stating the reasons, name(s) of relief player(s), and the date and location of the tournament.
3) Relief players must be recreational players registered with the same association and division or lower.
4) Written consent from the parent(s) of the relief player(s).
5) Players will not be listed on the team's HCR Roster and will be identified on the score sheet as a "Relief Player" "RP"
6) Permission will be in effect for the approved Tournament only.
A request for a replacement player will be made to the District Director 7 days prior to the Tournament for consideration by a committee of the District President, District Director and Chair of Minor.
A Replacement Player will act under such terms and conditions as determined by the District Director.
Note: In situations where there is less than 7 days prior to the tournament, the District Director and Minor Chair shall approve.

-  Hockey Canada Regulation F.11 states "Every player competing in games provided by this Association and its Branches shall be a member of a team which is a member of this Association and shall, prior to competing in any league or championship game, be registered by the Branch and duly validated by the Branch Executive Director or his designate for the current playing season".

-  Hockey Canada Reg. F. 29 states: "A player may not register and play under a second registration in the same season unless properly released from the initial registration in accordance with Reg. H.   Violations of this provision will result in the immediate suspension of the players.  Branches, at their discretion, may dual sign Minor Female players on both Female and Male Minor teams, where applicable."

-  BC Hockey Reg. 3.34 states:  "All players playing for any Team in any sanctioned Tournament must be properly registered with that team in accordance with the regulations of Hockey Canada, BC Hockey, District Association, and local Association, League or Team, as applicable."

In summary….

Coaches cannot pick up players to take to tournaments, exhibition games or league games.  This policy is not new but is being enforced this year.  If you are found taking players other than those that are on your teams Hockey Canada Team Registration (HCR) you will face discipline from WLMHA.
