Some advice please

Not sure about this one.

We signed a player at the start of the season for our club in Duchy 3. He's played for us in the last two years.

In September he went away to university and while there signed for a Saturday team. They are in a different county, league and they are a senior team.

He has just returned from university and we want to play him in our Duchy game on Saturday.

Does he have to be reinstated as he has played more than 4 teams for a senior team this season or does it not matter as he signed for us first?

Any views / opinions or even facts are welcome!

Surely best you check it out direct with your league secretary to avoid any doubt or misunderstanding.

It is my opinion that he will not have to e re-instated because it is a parochial thing not a national thing - re-instatements. Technically you could sign anyone from another county. Thats how i read it. I maybe wrong - I was once about 36 years ago lol

it would matter any way as he has only played 4 games you have to of played 5 to be classed as a senior player...but best check with your league and or ccfa in case we are all wrong!!
