INDIVIDUAL,
FRIEND, SMALL GROUP PLAYER INFORMATION
| How will I get put on a team? The first
and most likely is that the ESSC will place you on a team
with other individuals, friends or small group registrants
for the same sport/night/division. If there are not enough
of those types of registrations we will ask the currently
registered teams if they need more players. Occasionally,
a team will request additional players. Lastly, if we are
not able to accommodate you in your first choice, we will
try your back-up option. |

When do I find out if I
am on a team? All registrations must be paid online
at the time of registrationd. The final deadline for league
registrations is ~ 1 week before the leauges are scheduled
to begin. The ESSC will start putting teams together at
that time. Once the teams are finalized, you will be emailed
a roster that will have the contact information for your
teammates.
|
| What happens if you are
unable to place me on team? You will be issued a full
refund and be placed on the sub-list for the season.
What happens at the first game?
The schedules will be posted to the website ~48 hours prior
to your first game. The ESSC provides basic playing equipment
so you will just need to bring yourself and be dressed appropriately
for playing your sport and weather. Some sports require
each player to bring a light and dark colored shirt to each
game, the rules for your sport will let you know if that
is applicable for you. Since it will be difficult to tell
who your teammates are, you will just need to ask any players
as they arrive if they are on your team. If you have communicated
with each other before the game, it will be easier to find
each other at your playing field!
PLEASE NOTE: Soccer and Slo-Pitch:
The ESSC provides equipment directly to the teams. For singles'
teams it is essential that one person from the team pick
up the equipment/supply the deposit. There will be a scheduled
pick-up time prior to the start of the season. Teams must
decide amongst themselves who is going to be picking up
the equipment. |

Rosters:
1. The ESSC will form team rosters at the office based on
the number and gender (F/M) of the registrants. For most sports,
the ESSC's best-case scenario is that each team will have
two full lines + potentially 1-2 additional players. The only
exception is volleyball where the ESSC forms teams as follows:
4's teams will have 4-6 players. 6's teams will have 6-9 players.
The reason for the extra players in all leagues is to prevent
defaults. Singles' teams make up ~85% of defaults each season.
2. SMALL GROUP REGISTRANTS: The ESSC determines the final
number of players on each roster. The ESSC is unable, in most
cases, to accommodate specific requests. If you want to control
the number of players added to your group, you will want to
do your own recruiting and register a full team.

Skill Levels:
You will register based on your perceived skill level. If
you have not played in our leagues before, please be conservative
regarding your own skill. It is better to be a more skilled
player in a less skilled league than to be in over your
head in a league where you are not skilled enough to compete.
Singles' teams will often see a wide skill level range within
them. The important thing is to remember why you are there
…. TO HAVE FUN!!!!!!!
