What is a forfeit? <p>We understand teams may not be able to attend a scheduled contest. Teams are permitted to miss one scheduled contest per season. More than one absence results in a team being dropped from competition without receiving a refund. There is no penalty if a team provides advance communication regarding their intent to miss a contest. If a team provides a late notification or if they do not communicate at all, the team is subject to receiving a forfeit fine. This policy is in-place to ensure our registered teams have the opportunity to receive an experience they have paid for. We also have staff who are on-site ready to assist. When teams do not show for a contest, this negatively impacts the experience of teams and staff alike.</p> <p>Forfeiting teams receive a loss in the standings and their opponents receive a win. Sportsmanship rating situations may also apply.</p> Arrow
