A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT REGARDING RELEASES
A number of people have asked us why we have a “no release” policy, as referenced on our website. Good question. The LDBA Board, which consists of the executive and representatives of all the Associations, approved this policy in 2006. It is designed to protect our associations and help us field balanced and competitive local leagues.
Our objective is to have each association field competitive teams at all or most age groups. We have the best chance of accomplishing this objective if each player plays in the association in which he or she resides (i.e. their home association”). Therefore we do not grant releases prior to registration and require each player to register with their home association. If we were to grant releases with no consideration for our objective, we would have difficulty forming good local leagues for our players.
Following registration, if an association does not have enough players to field a team, a player who registered in that association can play for another LDBA association without the need for a release. The following season we would expect the player to once again register with his or her home association. The LDBA will ensure that every player has a team to play on if the home association does not have a team.
