Players Nominated Under Rule 4.2.2

In addition to players nominated for a particular team at the start of the season, Rule 4.2.2 stipulates that a player becomes ineligible for a lower team after appearing 4 times for higher teams. Those players noted to have incurred this limitation are listed below, but it is the responsibility of team captains to ensure compliance with this Rule as this listing may not always be fully up to date. The “Effective Date” is the date on which the player appeared for a fourth time for a higher team.
