Player limitation Rules Revised; Applies Only to Leagues that Advance to a Sectional Championship

Team Captains:

Mid-Atlantic Section Rule #11.d (the so-called “2-player rule”) applies to all leagues that advance to a Sectional Championship within the same season and same Division, and across all NTRP levels; but not across seasons or Divisions (in USTA League Tennis terminology, a “Division” is Adult, Senior, or Mixed Doubles).

For leagues with no advancement, or advancement only to a District championship, (e.g., MCTA's Fall Combo and Fall Mixed, or Winter Combo or Ladies Day League), the Section 2-player restriction no longer applies.

Player Deletion Policy and Procedures  
  In the event you need to delete a player from your roster, these policies and procedures apply!

1. Complete a Player Deletion Form. Be certain to complete it in its entirety; in order to process it, the players full name, USTA Membership Number, Team Code and Captain’s Name all must be legible and accurate. Save the form to your hard drive first; then complete it.
2. E-mail the completed document as an attachment to: playerdeletions@mctatennis.org  or fax it to: 240-823-9010. If the player being deleted has already played in one or more matches, please also copy your level coordinator when transmitting the Form. (This allows coordinators to remain current on who is/is not "active" on a roster, since once a player competes in a match his/her name cannot be deleted from the TennisLink roster.)
3. To be eligible for consieration of a refund, player deletion forms MUST be filed by the announced deadline date for the specific league at issue.

 If the player being deleted has not played in any matches, including appearance on a scorecard as the recipient of a default, MCTA will refund the majority of his/her registration fees, including MCTA and Maryland District administrative fees. The TennisLink user fee and the Mid-Atlantic Section fee ($4.75) are never refundable. 

Remember that once the Captain signs the Player Deletion form, the player is no longer eligible to participate in match play for that team or any other team at the same level and same local league. “Deletions” cannot be reversed.

 Be Careful when you Renew your USTA Membership… 
League players who need to renew their USTA Memberships before joining a team this year should take care when doing so. Be certain to always use/state your “old” membership number when renewing, even if it has lapsed for some time.
 
  USTA’s membership database is not sophisticated enough to recognize you as a former member simply by using your name and address. It assumes you are a brand-new member, with no player history. Hence, when it assigns you a new Membership Number, all your existing data – such as NTRP Rating – is not automatically transferred.Because this “glitch” in the system could be abused, Mid-Atlantic Section League rules provide for player disqualification for 12 months if it can be shown that a player has acquired or used a different Membership Number for purposes of evading his/her computer rating. So when renewing your Membership on-line, always be sure to input your “old” Membership number. If renewing on the telephone, be sure to state you previously had a Membership Number and ask the agent to search for it.
