Eligibility Requirements for ISC II
ISC II Eligibility Guidelines
Below are the Guidelines for ISC II eligibility for teams, position players and pitchers. Please note that all eligibility issues must be resolved prior to any team, player or pitcher participating in any ISC II Travel League, Regional Qualifying Tournament or Championship Tournament. See below for submitting appeals.
Teams Teams that competed in the previous year's ISC World Tournament, the previous year’s ASA “Major” Tournament or the previous year's Canadian Senior Men’s Championship and are returning at least 70% of their roster cannot play in the ISC II Tournament of Champions unless an appeal is granted.
Appeals will be considered through the process outlined below until June 1 of the current year.
Position Players
Any player who participated in the most recent Pan-Am Championship or the most recent ISF World Championship is not eligible for ISC II play.
Players that participated in the previous year's ISC World Tournament, Canadian Senior Men’s Championship or ASA “Major” tournament cannot play in the ISC II Tournament of Champions unless an appeal is granted.
Appeals will be considered through the process outlined below until June 1 of the current year.
Pitchers Any pitcher who pitched in the most recent Pan-Am games or the most recent ISF World Championship or whose name appears on the ISC II Ineligible Pitchers list published in the ISC II section of the ISC website is not eligible for ISC II play.
Pitchers that participated in the previous year's ISC World Tournament, Canadian Senior Men’s Championship or ASA “Major” tournament cannot play in the ISC II Tournament of Champions unless an appeal is granted.
Appeals will be considered through the process outlined below until June 1 of the current year.
Rosters All ISC II team rosters must be approved by the ISC prior to participation in any Qualifying Tournament or Championship Tournament.
No team, player or pitcher will be allowed to compete in both the ISC World Tournament and ISC II Tournament of Champions in the same season.
No player or pitcher may attempt to qualify for the ISC II Tournament of Champions from more than one region or for more than one team in any one season.
Pitchers or players who play on an ISC team which qualifies for the ISC World Tournament but does not attend are not eligible to play in the ISC II Tournament of Champions.
ISC II teams may have up to three (3) out-of-region players, including from the international region. There is a limit of two (2) out-of-region pitchers per team, including from the international region. All out-of-region players must be registered with the ISC, and the appropriate fee must be paid by May 1 of the current year.
NOTE: It is mandatory that any international region pitcher or player be submitted for approval even if he doesn’t appear on the ineligible list.
Additional details on out-of-region player registration and fees can be found on the ISC website under the Rules section.
Once teams have qualified for the ISC II Tournament of Champions, they are allowed three (3) pickups from ISC II-eligible players from within their region. Pickups must meet all ISC II eligibility guidelines and must be noted on the final roster submitted at the Tournament of Champions registration.
Returning teams must have 70% of their roster to qualify for an automatic berth for the following year.
Appeals All appeals must be submitted no later than June 1 of the current year to your ISC Regional Vice President (see the Contacting Us page for details) using the ISC Appeal form (available on the Rules and Forms page).
The ISC strongly suggests resolving eligibility questions early so there are no surprises or disappointments prior to league, tournament or championship play.
