Bill Sevier
A player wishing to play competitive baseball in the L.D.B.A. MUST register with his/her home association prior to March 15. Failure to register with the home association before March 15 would mean that said player will be allowed to only play house league.
(A Badger player only needs to register with the Badgers before March 15 -- if he is not successful in his attempt at making a Badger team, said player must return to his home association to play )
LDBA has a no release policy -- players MUST register with their home association.
