Player must have played in a club event first (e.g. Jacob - Edinburgh League, Andrew - Poly club champ, Stephen - Lightning) - easy to police
Let's scrap the 30 mile & fee payment rules as too hard to police
This should widen enough for good 2015-16 event
That sounds like progress but I think it would benefit from relaxing further e.g. 2 clubs both with 4-5 players keen to play by joining together. Having 4-5 from one club all turn out once in some other random event for the other club seems silly to me. Also say someone is living down south or oversees and would be willing to travel to Scotland for a few Richardson games - why force them to play in some other event first which would be costly to arrange? It seems spurious to me. Personally I prefer following:
On entry, teams provide a player list of up to 12 players. Teams can add or replace players up to this limit at any time but players added must wait 2 weeks before eligible to play. Player lists should be published on the CS website (maybe this noticeboard?) No player can be list for 2 different clubs during one season. [END] Why not?
