USYS Player Policy Rule 201:

Rule 201. PLAYER REGISTRATION

Section 1. A youth player must register each seasonal year in the State Association in which he or she
resides with his or her parent or parents or guardian or guardians, or, for a student in residence at a boarding school,
college, or university, the player may register in the state in which the boarding school, college, university, or division
of the college or university is located. Any other questions of residency may be determined by the State Association
in which the player is registered to vote or holds a current driver’s license.

Section 2. (a) Any youth player wishing to play on a team of a member of a State Association other than the
State Association where the player is registered, will receive a written release from the State Association where the
player is registered.
(b) A State Association may waive the provisions to register a player as provided by Section 1 of this rule and
release a player as provided by clause (a) of this section by providing notice of waiver to another State
Association.
(c) The State Association where the youth player is registered must promptly grant the youth player a release
or a waiver for no additional fee.
(d) A release or a waiver must be obtained each seasonal year.

Section 3. A youth player is registered for a seasonal year from the moment the player or the player’s
representative executes the registration form and pays the appropriate fees.
