Team Rosters and Requirements: The league requires team managers to recruit players from within the community.  Team members are required to live or work in Big Sky in the same calendar year.

• Team fees are $700 per team.  Player fees $15/player.  The fees must be paid before a team can play.
• Teams may consist of up to 25 players in any combination of male and female players. All players must be 18 years or older.
• The initial team rosters are due BEFORE the first game is played. Teams may add players to the roster through July 5th.  The league will provide team managers with a complete roster for all teams thereafter.
• All players must sign the league required liability waiver and pay a $15 player fee upon registration.  Players who have not signed the waiver may not participate in games and are considered non-roster players.
• A player may only be a roster player on one team.
• Team players are encouraged to have identification at the games in the event roster eligibility is questioned. A player unable to provide identification is disqualified from the game. A team may substitute for this player without penalty.  If the player is subsequently found to be a non-roster player, the team is subject to the non-roster rules below including forfeiture of the game.
