Player Eligibility
What every player, coach and team manager needs to know before taking the field
To keep JCL fair and competitive for every club, the eligibility rules below apply to all players across JCL1, JCL2 and JCL3. Please make sure your squad is fully compliant before Finals — ineligible players may cost your team the fixture.
Players must be registered online to play in Finals. If a player is not on the online registered team list, they will not be eligible to participate.
Players cannot play across two teams in the same age group. For example, a player who has played for a team in U12 cannot play for another U12 team across any category — JCL1, JCL2 or JCL3.
Any overage players must have written approval from JCL Management before they participate. Overage players without this approval will be unable to participate.
Valid ID Is Mandatory
All players must bring a valid form of ID with them when playing, as ID checks will be performed where requested. Failure to present a valid physical ID may result in forfeiture of the fixture the player plays in, if a complaint is raised.
Passport
Driving Licence
Birth Certificate
Plus one of the following:
- Student card with photo ID issued by the school
- A recent school photograph with the name clearly shown
- Current library card with a photo
