Subject matter: Rules pertaining to Major and major plus playing down a division or age group.
If Playing 60 AAA
How many 60 major players allowed? 2?
Can a 65 major plus player play 60 AAA as one of the 60 major chips?
No. players can not drop two rating classes.
Isn't 65 major plus considered the same level as 60 major? If so, that would only be dropping 1 class.
DC7CHERRY was asking, can that player drop to AAA. That is dropping two ratings. you can have 3 major players on a AAA roster.
major plus can not play AAA
donskip14, but he is also dropping down an age group. Unless he is already separately classified as a 60 Major Plus player, a 65 Major Plus player is equivalent to a 60 Major player. Thus, that player should be able to be one of the 3 Major players the 60 AAA team can carry. As with all eligibility questions, you should call the office and talk with the eligibility specialist.
Major plus cannot play AAA. I called California about this same thing last year. In order to play AAA you would have to drop to 55’s. I was informed you can play Major 60, but not be considered one of themajor players on a AAA 60 team.
65 Major plus CAN play 60AAA. One rating drop 6 t0 5

Better call the office then because that’s not what I was told.
I called Sacramento recently on this issue and was clearly told 65 Major Plus can NOT play 60 AAA. 65M+ can go down to 60M, but not AAA. I'm not sure about 55 (re the 65M+ player) and what those restrictions would be. Whoever wants to clarify should definitely call Sacramento.
