I.S.C. Clarifies Out-Of-Area Pitcher Rule

The ISC Executive Committee, last weekend provided a clarification
of a rule passed last 
August by the Board of Directors.  The rule requires World Tournament
teams having three or more Out of Area pitchers, to declare their
two OOA World Tournament pitchers by August 1 and offering a
release to the pitchers not named to their World Tournament roster.
 
Here is a clarification of that rule.
 
1.  The OOA pitchers in excess of two per team, must be offered
a release but the pitcher has the option of staying with his
season team even though he cannot pitch in the World Tournament.
 
2.  The declaration date is now changed from August 1 to June
15 and by June 30, the ISC Executive Director must be informed
of any pitcher movement from team to team.  This is to allow
the final team rankings to reflect any pitcher movement.  Failure
to notify the ISC Executive Director by June 30 may result in
the pitcher being declared ineligible for the World Tournament
because the final team rankings may be distorted.
 
3.  If a pitcher is released on June 15, he may continue to play
for his original team in ISC Travel League and Area Qualifying
Tournament competition even if that competition is after June
15.  The pitcher would then go with a new team for the ISC World
Tournament.
 
Any pitcher who does not request a release and remains with the
original team he signed Out of Area with is still eligible to
pitch ISC Qualifying Events after June 15th. However if he is
not one of the two declared OOA pitchers declared by that team
on June 15th, he is ineligible for the ISC World Tournament.
 
4.  Any pitchers changing teams are subject to applicable Out
of Area fees in their new location even though the fee was paid
by the original team for their location.
 
The overall intent of the rule is to provide World Tournament
participation to all pitchers who want to participate.
 
If there are any questions about this or additional clarification
is needed, please email ISC Executive Committee Chairman, Larry
Fisher lfisher838 at ameritech.net.
