Player Release Transfer

Bylaws 3.15.2

72-Hour Recession Period: Players who accept offers through the tryout process, including re-signing with their current club team, have 72 hours from the date of their acceptance to rescind their commitment without penalty, financial or otherwise. If they do so within this period, they shall receive a full deposit refund.

Drop/Transfer Policy: After the 72-hour recession period, players are bound by any signed financial or contractual obligations with their current club/team. Any player requesting a release after this period must submit a KSYSA Drop/Transfer Form online to their current coach and club registrar. Clubs/teams may charge a drop transfer fee not to exceed the total seasonal fees committed for the current seasonal year.

Parents/Participants may negotiate a release that satisfies the interests of both parties. If an agreement cannot be reached, a request for a review must be submitted to the State Office. A three-member panel from the relevant district involved will review the circumstances and contracts to determine their validity and may establish any fees required to secure the release.
