Points System
Purpose:
The purpose of the
player points system in the CMFL is to promote an even
competition.
Objectives:
-
Encourage
clubs to develop and promote their junior teams and players.
-
Encourage
clubs to recruit new players from outside the CMFL.
-
Better
manage increasing player payments and improve the financial
stability of clubs.
The
Board has determined the following:
The total
points of each club should be reduced by 2 points in 2008 and
a further one point in 2009.
A player (not
deemed a reserves player) recruited
from another CMFL Club becomes a 7 point player for all
recruits after 2007.
The winner of
the Grand Final is penalized 2
points for the following year, regaining 1 point each
subsequent year until the penalty is removed -
Starting with the 2007 Grand Final.
The Runner-Up
of the Grand Final is penalized 1
point in the following year. Starting
with the 2007 Grand Final.
Appealing the
Board’s decision on the points allocated –
the process where Clubs wish to challenge the
points allocated to a player by the League has been adjusted
to allow for appeals to the CMFL Independent Tribunal.
The Process is as
follows:
Step 1: Player’s points
rating is set by Points Review Panel consisting of 2 Board
members, League Manager and League Clearance Secretary
Step 2: If a Club
believes the points allocated are not correct, fair or
reasonable it then asks for a review of the decision by the
full CMFL Board.
Step 3: If the original
decision is confirmed by the Board the Club can now appeal to
the Independent Tribunal
The definition of what constitutes a one point
player
has been amended. From 2008 a player coming
from the Juniors is a one point player for the CMFL Club at
which he played his first season of U15s. For all other CMFL
Clubs he will be a seven point player.
If a player comes to a
CMFL Club from outside the Juniors and is eligible for Colts
he is a one point player for the Club at which he played his
first Colts game. For any other CMFL club he will be a seven
point player.
