Game Schedules, Reschedules and Forfeitures

---

The 2026 MMLL season is set to begin and schedules have been published.

Each year, there are requests to reschedule games during the season. Please see the details below from the MMLL Regulations (Regulation 11). The rescheduling of games is extremely challenging given the number of teams, arenas and officials involved.

Key Note - all requests to reschedule a game must be submitted by the Association President to MMLL. If you are a coach or manager, please contact you Association President for all requests. 

 

REGULATON 11

1. Games once scheduled must be met.

2. A game may be rescheduled in the event of an officiating shortage or a facility problem.  That type of reschedule will be done through the League Scheduler.

3. A reschedule will not be approved due to player shortage resulting from suspension, illness, etc.

4. Foreseen events such as proms and school trips may be accommodated in the initial schedule only if the Club/team involved provides the information to the scheduler in advance of the schedule being finalized and posted on the website.

5. Teams can only submit an unforeseen reschedule request to the League through their Association President. Seven days' notice is preferred. League presidents should validate the request to determine if they’re in compliance with this regulation. If the Club President approves, it will be forwarded to the League. The Commissioner or their designate  can approve a reschedule requested as a result of unforeseen events.

6. Any team who fails to play a game that has been scheduled will have forfeited said game.

7. The consequences of one forfeiture are as follows: 

   1. 1. Should a team forfeit a game, the Club in question will be required to pay the League a $50 fine plus the cost of floor time and officials may be levied and billed to the offending Association. The non-offending team will be awarded an automatic 5-0 victory and awarded 2 points in the standings

      2. The consequences of a team forfeiting more than one game are as follows:

         1. Should the same team forfeit a second game, the non-offending team will be awarded an automatic 5-0 victory and awarded 2 points in the standings.  In addition, a $150 fine plus the costs of floor time and officials may be levied and billed to the offending Association.

   2. Should there be a double forfeit (ie. Both teams do not have enough players to meet League minimum requirements) both teams are to be considered offending teams (see 6 and 7).  No reschedules will be considered and neither team will be awarded points.
