Request an Unplayed Game SCORE Resolution
BPYSL Request for Unplayed Game SCORE Resolution
Please complete this form if your team would like to submit a formal request for an Unplayed Game Score Resolution.
Please Note: Unplayed Game Score Resolution will NOT be approved for the following circumstances (please do not submit this form if one of these is the case).
- If a game was cancelled due to weather or lack of referees and the opposing team offered reschedule dates that your team could not accommodate, the game will just go as Unplayed.
- If both Teams refuse to travel to each other’s location as an option and/or there are not fields or referees available
Unplayed Game Score Resolution- This policy is to be used when 2 teams are unable to re-schedule a game that has been cancelled and the following conditions have been met:
- The team requesting a score resolution has completed the following:
- Requested available re-schedule options from the opponent
- Provided at least 3 options to the opponent for a re-schedule date
- All efforts to re-schedule the game have been exhausted
- Please Note:
- The team who cancelled the game (not cancelled due to weather, refs, fields, etc) should be making all efforts to accommodate the re-schedule including being willing to travel closer to the other team for the re-schedule.
- This request will be reviewed by BPYSL staff for approval
- If teams cannot come up with date to re-schedule the game:
- If one of the teams had requested the originally scheduled game to be cancelled or changed, the opponent that is requesting the Unplayed Game Score Resolution will receive a 1-0 win in the standings
- If the game was cancelled by the league due to Weather, Fields, Ref shortage, etc, the game may go as ‘Unplayed’ and no scores reported. Circumstances will determine if the game could have been rescheduled (if cancellation was not in the last weeks of the season, etc) to award one of the teams an ‘unplayed game score resolution’ due to not putting in efforts to reschedule.
Request a Forfeit
BPYSL Request for FORFEIT of Opposing Team
Please complete this form if your team would like to submit a formal request for the opposing team to forfeit a match that was not played. Forfeits are not just a formality but must be approved by BPYSL and are taken very seriously with severe ramifications.
If you are looking to have points for the game that the other team cancelled- we recommend submitting the Unplayed Game SCORE Resolution form instead. This can be approved immediately where a forfeit approval can take time.
***Please note: Once submitted, if the Forfeit is approved by BPSYL, the opposing team will incur the following:
1. Team will be fined a $200 Forfeit Fee.
2. Team will lose 3 points in the standings.
3. Notice may be sent to Ohio Soccer Association (OSA) that the team is in bad standing.
4. If 2nd Forfeit the team may be banned from playing in an OSA/BPYSL the following season.
FALL 2024 Scheduling Steps:
1. ALL team reps that are scheduling should read the Scheduling Guidelines posted below.
2. You will work together via zoom, email, text, GotSport Chat, etc. to schedule your games.
3. Pre-determined match-ups will be listed in your GotSport system (where you are REQUIRED to update the match details once your games are scheduled with your opponents). Make sure you know who you are playing prior to contacting teams in your bracket. You can click the button above to view the match-ups.
a. Teams will need to travel! Do not expect all teams to come to you. Teams can schedule 2 games on the same day against further teams if they want to minimize travel.
4. Field Availability Scheduling Sheets-you MUST reserve your field (for all Buckeye Contracted Fields)! Use these sheets to reserve fields on the dates/times you agree upon. DO NOT STEP ON SOMEONE ELSE’S ENTRY! We will be able to see history so will know who had the spot first. DO NOT take a spot if you have not confirmed it in advance with your opponent. This is not the game entry form- this is for teams to sign-up for a spot so other teams know it is already taken.
a. Teams are welcome to host at their own fields or fields they reserve but the team will be responsible for getting permission to play, any fees for use, or contract details for those fields. BPYSL only covers the cost of fields we have contracted which are listed on the left- Spring 2024 Contracted Fields List. In order to select your own complex in GotSport, your club will need to have the complex listed in their venues.
FINAL STEP IS TO UPDATE YOUR GAMES IN THE GOTSPORT SYSTEM WITH ACTUAL DATE, TIME, COMPLEX, AND FIELD NUMBER. WHAT IS CURRENTLY LISTED ON THE SCHEDULE IS A PLACE HOLDER USING A DECEMBER DATE. SEE SCHEDULING GUIDELINES ON HOW TO UPDATE YOUR MATCHES. Help Tutorials are above in the FAQ Tutorials link.
