    Forfeit Policy


    We take forfeits very seriously at the GWAC. 


    Registration is a commitment and we expect teams to play all of their scheduled games and be respectful of their opponents' commitment and expectations. 


    Failure to attend a scheduled game deprives other teams a portion of their season causing great disappointment & frustration involving travel time and the disruption of personal schedules. 


    Please be respectful members of the GWAC community and be courteous to your fellow league members! 


    Each forfeit will be handled on a case-by-case basis & GWAC has the right to exercise the penalties as necessary.
