Rosters will also be submitted to the opposing coach prior to the weigh-in before every game. Teams not submitting rosters will play under penalty of forfeiture. Necessary game day corrections in ink shall not be cause for game forfeiture. Rosters shall be in a format approved by the league and shall include the following information for each player:

1. Jersey number
2. Name

Any violation of this rule will result in the forfeiture of any game in which the ineligible player participated.
