Looking for information/rules
Can a AAA cut a player mid season to make room for a Junior player that quits his team?
I get a player being cut for not preforming at a aaa level or a disruptive kid or parent.
But was if a junior player quits his team and becomes available. Can said coach just cut a player to pick up a junior player?
And if yes. Being Minor hockey is there compensation to the kid. Repayment of gear/hotels/league fees …?
I have never heard of this in all my years my kids playing AAA.
Anybody have this happen to their kid?
In the GTHL a team cannot release a player beyond Nov 15 without the family agreeing to a release.
If the family wants out or agrees to a release then the player can be released.
As for compensation, the family should be getting pro-rated fees from both the org and the team fees.
They can for discipline reasons. Other than that I agree
