Frequently Asked Questions

Who participates in Jersey Club Sports leagues and events?

Active professionals who are looking to meet new people and have a great time while playing their favorite sports. You must be 21 or older and have medical insurance.  We do not provide medical insurance.

 

TEAM

If you register for a team as a Captain, you must have enough players to fill your team.  It is not our responsibility to place "Indy" players on your team.  Do not register a team until you have enough players committed.

 

What if I don’t have enough people for a whole team?
It is not uncommon that an entire team be registered at one time. But if that is not possible, the remainder of the roster will be filled with others who also could not fill the roster. It is completely acceptable to sign up an entire team, or as an individual.

 

 

What is an individual sign-up?

We now call them Indy sign-ups not Free agents. Basically it means that you don’t have a team to play with, but still want to play a sport. You sign up by yourself and we do our best to place you on what we call "Indy teams" with other people that have signed up singly or in small groups or an established team that needs an extra player or two!  

 

After I sign up as an "indy" what happens next?

You'll be contacted shortly via email before the league starts with details about your team.  If you can not be placed on a team we will refund you in full at this point or offer a credit. To better increase your chances of being placed, sign up sooner rather than later.

 

How long in the season?

Most of our leagues consist of a six or seven games with a playoff game for top teams.

 

How long do we play for?
Most of our leagues run for 50 mins-one hour. Softball games are 75 mins.  Your game times will rotate each week throughout the season.

 

What happens in the case of inclement weather?

Weather Policy: We can not control the weather! We HATE canceling games!!! Jersey Club Sports reserves the right to shorten a season due to excessive rain-outs. We will try to make up each game to the best of our ability. We will try to extend the season to make-up games or will reschedule games on another day.

 

Thirty-minute rule  Once lightning has been recognized, we must wait at least 30 minutes after the last flash of lightning is witnessed or thunder is heard.  Any subsequent lightning or thunder after the beginning of the 30-minute count should reset the clock and another count should begin.  Everyone must seek shelter in their cars.

 

What happens if games need to be rescheduled?
Jersey Club Sports reserves the right to reschedule games to alternative locations on different days or possibly extend the season to accommodate rescheduled games.  If we experience as excessive amount of cancellations we will need to cut the season short.

 

What if I don’t register and pay by the deadline?

If payment is not received on time, your spot on the team may be given up. Late registration is allowed, but an additional fee will be added to the original registration fee. You will then be added to a team as soon as possible. Rosters will be finalized within the first two weeks of the league’s season.

 

No refunds!  We will issue a credit which will be valid for 1 year from date.

Registration fee is non-transferable. You can not transfer your league fee to another member unless approved by Jersey Club Sports.
