There have been numerous posts (throughout the year) regarding players available to play (sub) in specific tournaments. These posts appear to be “one-off” requests. How is this accomplished if players are already rostered on another team?

Somewhere I remember something about a “hired-gun” statement versus a permanent add but could not find or recall the narrative.

I have searched the BB for previous posts on this “borrow” topic/issue but have yet to get clarity how this (substitute/borrow player) works and most importantly under what rule book section is this clearly defined. Thank you !!

H² ... The information I believe you are looking for was discussed here in a message thread originated by HSquared on 01/07/2022 ... It was an eight-post back-and-forth thread between you and me ... This is an SSUSA eligibility department roster composition/approval policy and not a formal Rulebook provision ... Here's the direct link for you to cut/paste to review it ...

Dammit D².... I thought I had seen this issue before, but did not realize it was me that started the dialogue. The part that became convoluted was the switching of age groups, more so than sliding straight across the age spectrum.

So..... I can go play for a "local" team as a "one-time" helper (and not jeopardize my current team), no matter how any players are on their roster for a particular tourney?

D², as always, thanks for the response.
