2 games played, NO REFUND.

Protest Fee:

Protest fee is $100 Protesting coach must let tournament director which player he or she is protesting.  If its more than one player its an additional $100 and $100 for every player you want to protest.  This rule is set for teams that suspect but aren't sure.  Some kids are big but it doesn't mean they're too old. My suggestion is to be absolutely sure if you're protesting a player. 

If protesting coach wins his protest he gets his money back and wins the game.  Protest must be made before the game is over.
