LEAGUE RULES

Draft Night

Held at least 1 week before season start.

Team Captains drawn at random to determine draft order.

Goalies are selected via a separate draw before players.

Player selection order:

1. 1. Goalies
   2. Full-time Level 5
   3. Full-time Level 4
   4. Full-time Level 3
   5. Full-time Level 2

 Score Balancing

After full-time player draft, teams tally up skill score totals.

If scores are not balanced, the team with the lowest score picks from the spares list first, until balanced.

Draft rotation resumes normally once balance is achieved.

Post-Draft Trades

48-hour trade window after draft closes.

No trades permitted beyond this window unless approved for reasonable cause.
