In order for guest players to be approved for play, compliance with the items below is required:

GUEST PLAYER FORM

OSA teams – Coach or Manager from the state of Oklahoma must fill out & submit the Oklahoma Soccer Association guest player form before a guest player can attend the tournament.

Click for: OSA Guest Player Form. (This is ONLY for players currently registered through OSA who will be guest playing with another OSA registered team)

NOTE: After you open the OSA Guest Player Form, you will need to click Register beside your name. Then, proceed through the form. You will enter all the tournament and guest player information on the third page. Once you complete the OSA form, you will need to log back into your coach account, click on “Forms” and then click “Complete” to the right of the OSA Guest Player Form link. When the page pops up, it should show Approved. Take a screen shot of that page and print it. When you try to just print it, it doesn’t show up correctly.

Check-In details.

Non OSA Teams – If your team is not registered through OSA, please refer to your State Association for guest player requirements.

 

OFFICIAL ROSTER: Coach or Manager must have a copy of the guest player’s “Official Roster to verify the guest player is age appropriate and currently registered with a sanctioned club at the field at all times. You can obtain an “Official Roster from the guest player’s club registrar or club president. GotSport Rosters will not be accepted.

MEDICAL RELEASE: Coach or Manager must have a medical release for each guest player signed by the parent/guardian at the field at all times. The one used during your season will work, or find one here to view/download: USYS Medical Release Form.

PLAYER PASS: (U9 & older) Coach or Manager must have a copy of the guest player’s Player Pass for Check-in and have a laminated color pass at the field for all games. (Only if the league in which they play requires Player Passes)

OSA DIRECT REGISTRATION: If a guest player of an OSA registered team is not rostered with a club the Parent/Guardian will need to direct register the Player with Oklahoma Soccer Association as a tournament player. The team manager or coach will need to have a copy of the documents received once registration is complete with them at the field at all times. Click here for detailed instructions and links to direct register a player.

 

NOTE: This process may take several days and must be completed in time to have your paperwork by tournament time. (Do not wait until the week of the tournament to direct register a player, it may be too late.) Proof of direct registration and player pass (U9-U19) are required and must be included in the teams tournament documents. Needed documents can be found here:  Team Check-in

GUEST PLAYER FAQ
Can a Guest Player ‘play down’ an age group?
No. A player can only guest play for a team which is age appropriate for the player. This means that a U13 player cannot play down on a U12 team. Note: A player that regularly plays up in an older age group can guest play for a team which is the same as their true age. For example a U12 player that is playing up on a U14 team during the regular season can guest play for a U12 team.

Can a Guest Player ‘Play Up’ an age group?
Yes. Guest Players can ‘Play Up’ one age group as is permitted for regular season rosters.

Can Competitive Player guest play for a Recreational Team?
No. A player who is rostered on a Competitive Team cannot play on a Recreational Team.
