Incident Summary:Game was played under protest as the Almaden team only had valid passes for 6 players and their coach. Almaden won 5-3 and SMC has protested.
Comments:In situations where a player does not appear on a roster on a game card, the player is eligible to play and can be added to the roster if the player appears on an electronic roster for that team through gotsoccer.
In situations where a player is unable to present a physical player pass, a player pass shown as a PDF on a phone, tablet or other electronic device will suffice for the player to be eligible to play.
In this situation, as the players had PDF of their passes, they were eligible to play and the protest is denied.
