League Mergers – Clubs wishing to play in the Auckland Competition MUST register with NHSA, to be allowed to Play in any ASA Competition, ALL ASA Charges are to be through NHSA office and on charged with the additional NHSA Fee.

7. Dispensation due to “No Grade”
   1. These Dispensations will still be on a case-by-case basis.
   2. Players requiring dispensation due to “No Grade” being supplied by NHSA, will be considered with the dispensation process, but not necessarily with the same rules. E.g. Not being normally able to “Play Up” when a dispensation is applied.
   3. Where “No Grade” is offered the Competition Advisory MAY consider dispensation down, and MAY allow “Playing Up” to support the individual player's development, and so to not lose players to other teams, Clubs and Associations.
   4. Also, the number of dispensations per team being a max of 2 per team, MAY also be lifted where “No Grade” is the case.

Anyone found wearing METAL CLEATS on turf outside the 4 areas allowed will incur a FINE of $50, this will be charged to the Club. Each Club will get a 1 Strike warning, then be fined from there on.
