http://www.dallascricket.net/Main/documents.aspxGentlemen,
We had an unfortunate situation during the Fall-2016 tape ball league Division A semifinal game between King Cobras CC and Incredible Indians. One of the King Cobras CC players that played for Dallas DareDevils team earlier in the same league played a significant role for King Cobras CC in their play-off Semi-Finals game. DCL rules and the bylaws strictly prohibit players playing for more than one team in the same tournament. Hence, the following decisions/actions have been taken by the DCL Management.
The semi-final match between Incredible Indians and King Cobras CC has been awarded to Incredible Indians; result of the game that was played will be nullified.
The player that played for King Cobras CC in the semi-final game after playing for another team in the league stage has been suspended for three games. This player will have to sit-out the next three games that his team plays in the DCL tape ball league.
The DCL management understands that this may not be an intentional act by the King Cobras CC captain; however, it’s the captain’s responsibility to do the necessary due diligence before recruiting a new player to the team and to make sure the team understands and follows the DCL Rules and bylaws. If the Captain or the Vice Captain is not sure about any player who plays in DCL/DLCL they can always send an email to dcl...@gmail.com and ask them to check the DCL/DLCL database to find out about the player details. We hope that this will serve as a deterrent to all the teams and the players to indulge in such activities. DCL Management will not hesitate to take harsher actions to curb such activities by players and captains in order to make the DCL community stronger.
