ROSTERS AND CLASSIFICATION
ROSTERS & CLASSIFICATION
Teams will have a choice to Register in the A or B Classification.
Teams may be moved to A Classification if no roster on line. (Must be 9 or more players) 
Teams must have a roster online with Girls name, DOB and E Mail to be considered to be moved to B or C
Teams wanting to move to a different Classification must send an email request to the USAY Sports or their State Director .
During any Mississippi USSSA event that a team is found with a player on the line up card that is not on the "Online Roster" or an approved Guest Player form will get a 7-0 loss. Protest must be "During" the game. Only Seeded pool and Bracket games can be protested. If team is still in the event (The loss did not eliminate the team) with the loss they fix the online roster and continue play. This does not apply to State & National events where rosters are locked prior to the start of the event. In that situation, USSSA Rule 13 will apply.
