Group I

School records (home address of player’s parents or guardians)

Vehicle records (i.e., registration, lease, etc.)

Employment records

Insurance documents (with residence address


Group II

NOTE 1: Example – Three documents from the same Group (utility bill, cable bill, and bank statement) constitute only ONE document.

These important documents must be collected EVERY League year.
