Game time is forfeit time! All teams not having the minimum number of players to start a game will be assessed a $25 forfeit fee. This fee must be paid before your next scheduled game. If you know you will not have enough players, you may call at least 24 hours in advance to your scheduled game and the forfeit fee will be waived, but you will still receive a loss. Two forfeits will result in removal from the league. I AM A CURRENT GMU STUDENT/FACULTY MEMBER, BUT I HAVE LOST MY UNIVERSITY ID CARD, CAN I STILL PARTICIPATE? All George Mason students, faculty, and staff are required to have a valid GMU ID card at check-in for each game.
