CHL Booster Clubs Guideline - Sect 35
Folks,
I just received today from Leon Friedrich - Manager of Hockey Operations, via fax, the official CHL Booster Club Guidelines.
I know there was a lot of discussion at the BC convention, and he did clarify that a welcome food basket at the start of the season was not the same as "groceries" - where a BC might provide groceries to subsidize a player's income. Same goes with the understanding that food for the bus trips was not forbidden, nor the post game meal for other teams.
Mysti from the Cottonkings should be sending this information to all the Booster Clubs shortly. It was brought up at the BC convention this summer.....
CENTRAL HOCKEY LEAGUE
LEX SCRIPTA
35. Booster Club Guidelines
35.1 Booster Club cannot reproduce for sale, CHL logo and/or team logo without the expressed written permission of the Central Hockey League and/or CHL member team.
35.2 Booster Club is not permitted to make any direct monetary payment to any players. Any direct or indirect payment (gift certificates for merchandize, groceries, gasoline, phone cards, etc.) made to the players may place the team in violation of the CHL salary cap. The following guidelines must be followed, and if they are not, may place a team in violation of the League salary cap guidelines.
CHL Booster Clubs:
• may provide accessories for players’ apartments such as linens, pots and pans, electronics, etc. which remain property of the Booster Club.
• may provide a one-time seasonal/holiday gift to players (no gift cards/certificates for merchandise, groceries, gasoline, phones will be permitted, however restaurant certificates will be permitted).
• May not pay any bills (i.e. utilities, cable, phone, etc.) for any players.
If in the case of any uncertainty, the League Office needs to be contacted for clarification.
