LOAN PLAYERS
Loan Players
The League operates a player loan system for players to assist short-handed clubs.
Players from other Leagues may be loaned, but clubs should be aware of the team strengthening regulations.
Loan players will only be allowed to play for the club’s lowest team in YPLN.
Loan players must be fully registered on Play-Cricket as a Loan Player by the borrowing club within 24 hrs of the match being played.
Any player, whether adult or junior, involved in a loan transfer will not be permitted to sign for the borrowing club for the current or subsequent season without the specific permission of the loaning club and approval by the League’s Registration Officer.
Any breach of these rules will be subject to penalties laid down in the League’s Schedule of Penalties.
It is a clubs own responsiblity to ensure the player that they have loaned meets 'team strengthening' criteria despite League approval on play-cricket.
All clubs should make themselves fully aware of Rule 41.4 ''A club’s lowest ranked or single team in Divisions 1 to 5 will only be able to loan players who are regular players in the same or a lower division''. If in doubt - ask.
