Adding a Player After the Start of League - Rule of the Week

September 6, 2025 1:23 AM

Situation: The team we are playing tonight just added a player to their roster using Scorekeeper, but we have already started the night. What if any options do we have?

Players must be added to the roster no later than ten (10) minutes after the scheduled league start time.

If you can’t get a player added due to a technical issue, just let your opponent know before the 10 min bylaw requirement. Otherwise, opponents can deny a late-added player from playing that night.

Rule: Bylaws “Adding Players”: https://apa-by-laws.s3.amazonaws.com/prod/921_bylaws_2025.pdf

Email to sandiego@apaleagues.com.
Email Subject Line must read “SDAPA Rule of the Week”
Clearly state the rule/situation and if you know where the answer is found please provide those details.
