Team Captain's: Please note that any unpaid members with regards to annual dues have now been removed from rosters. So if you are missing a player from your team, you know why.

Will the team be able to add the player back to the roster? Sure... but they will need to pay their annual dues prior to that happening. The APA national office does an audit around this time every session to check that no unpaid players are on active rosters... if they are... I get yelled at and then I get charged for their play. That's no bueno.

Also if your team is in arrears... ie. showing a past due, do not expect to receive bonus points. Timely payment is expected the night of play (that's like the main reason we give bonus points)... Jenny is often entering these scores the next day so make sure your payments are on time so you don't lose those bonus points! And excuses like "I forgot" etc. etc. won't work... Don't call and ask me, as it's not fair to those teams who have their sh..stuff together to return points that were not earned. So get in the habit of carrying a credit or paying immediately upon turning your scoresheets in that night.
