Decisions made by this committee become recommendations to the District Director.  Caution should be exercised when dealing with “A” level players. These players moving into your association cause disruption. Make sure there is a legitimate tie to your community & that your board reviews.  Rainbow teams: There is a special waiver form for this situation. These teams need to be approved by the District Director PRIOR to tryouts.  NO ONE outside of your association can tryout in your association without properly signed waivers. 12
