Leage : AYHL
Age : U12

Hi

Can anyone point me to the doc that outlines the rules governing player's ability to move the team after the season is over. I keep hearing about the 2 player rule ( when only 2 players can move from one team to another on any given year ), however I can not find any info on that.

Is it AYHL specific or generally US Hockey, does it start from some age group, is it a made up rule that does not really exist.

thank you

Reg Dunlop:
It's an Atlantic District (AAHA) rule, which is part of USA Hockey.  Below is the language, taken from the website:

(a) Tier I Youth and Girls Rosters (10U through 16U Age Classification):
A Tier I Youth or Girls National Tournament Bound Roster shall not
roster more than two (2) players who appeared on Tier I Youth or
Girls National Tournament Bound Roster, or four (4) players who
appeared on a Tier II Youth or Girls National Tournament Bound
Roster from the previous season. Players exempt from this provision
are those who;
(i) Participate at the 18U Youth or 19U Girls levels; or
(ii) Move up or transfer from within the same Association or from
the prospective Tier I AAA team’s feeder team(s) provided the
player(s) were part of the same Association or feeder team’s
roster from the previous season; or
(iii) Legitimately tryout with their original Association and are
subsequently cut or who are not offered a player contract.
(iv) Join an Association that is based out of the same ice arena
that the Head Coach's and or Assistant Coach's team utilized
for a majority of their practice and home game ice in the prior
season.
