2023 Player Protection Ends

Tuesday, January 31, 2023 @ 11:00 pm
ENYTB teams from the prior year that have not been re-activated by this date are reclassified as "dead" teams, thereby freeing their players to sign with any other ENYTB team as Unrestricted Free Agents (UFA). Returning clubs/teams that miss this deadline are still eligible to register for the current season up until registration officially closes (MAR 1 at 9U-12U and APR 1 at 13U and older). However, such teams are at risk of having their former players sign with another ENYTB team in the interim as UFA. Teams do not get compensatory credits for players lost as UFA.
