2021-2022 Match Score and Roster Submissions

***** UPDATE – 09/28/2021 *****

Effective immediately (09/28/2021), we are back on CMS.
See the sidebar for the match reporting link to CMS.

  • Each coordinator will be sending clubs their IDs and PWs.
  • If you haven’t used CMS before, ask a senior club member or ask for assistance. However, it’s an easy system so try it.
  • After entries are finished (roster and scoring breakdowns), you must “sign” your part of the form to acknowledge agreement with final score, etc.
  • Rosters will be fed from Sportlomo. Those must be included with the submissions. if you haven’t used CMS before, you enter that in the system and not into a separate spreadsheet.

ALL scores submitted by noon on Tuesday 09/28/2021 are in the system. The standings are updated in real time within CMS. If you did not submit your previous scores (due every Monday night), you must do so in CMS. The Jotform system has been shut down for CMS.

Non-compliance with any of the above may lead to forfeits or other negative actions.

CMS and Check-in details for MAC Championship events

MAC Playoff Teams: Congrats! You’ve made it this far. Read on for important details for the next couple of weekends:

1) CMS has been loaded with the matches for Saturday April 29th. (Men’s and Women’s) For matches that take place on Sunday April 30th, there will be updates based on Saturday’s results – specifically for the women’s events. CMS matches for playoffs will be locked on Mondays. Rosters for Sunday will need to be loaded by 10am on Sunday morning.

2) For the Women’s MAC Championships this coming weekend and for the Men’s Championship next weekend:
All players must bring an ID, driver’s license and/or Passports to verify identification as part of the check-in procedures. NO ID, NO RUGBY.
3) All teams are required to go through ID Check for the MAC Championships. Check-in will take place from 9:30 to 12:30 pm on Saturday and on an as needed basis beyond that time, in between matches. (If you need time outside of this window you must give me advance notice.)  This is applicable to both the Women’s and Men’s events as all KO times on Saturday are 11, 1, and 3 pm.

Teams are encouraged to check-in before warming up. Please plan on about 20-30 minutes for everyone to grab their ID and to meet me for check-in. I will have CIPP rosters with me, reviewed for eligibility on each player. Each club needs to prepare their rosters in CMS and bring a copy to turn in as part of Check-in.
  • Any player that is CIPP’d after April 1 is not eligible.
  • For clubs that have multiple sides – Any player that has met the 50% criteria of playing with the higher side/division will not be eligible to play in the lower division.
  • Any player that is not able to show proof of identification is not eligible to play.
  • Consider this practice, should you advance to the May 20/21st Competitive Region playoffs.I understand the check-in procedures are similar.
Please make sure you understand who is eligible and who is not. I hate having to tell someone they can’t play and for that to be a surprise. It sucks even more for your player who thinks they are going to play to find out they won’t.
If you have questions on this, let me know in advance. You can verify eligibility through CIPP and CMS together.

Rosters, Eligibility, Score Reporting, and Check-In for MAC Championship weekend:

Rosters need to be submitted to the MAC Chair for each match. Each game counts individually towards USA’s eligibility for playoffs, so we aren’t treating this as a weekend, with a roster of 28. Each match can have 23 players.  Use this Roster Form. Teams will need to track of the players that played in each match to attain eligibility towards USA National playoffs.

Eligibility for each player is based CIPP before the March 15th date with their club. All transfers should be complete at this point. If a player did transfer from another club, and a waiver is required, it should already be submitted to USA. So if they aren’t already on the team’s roster by the 3/15 date, they are not eligible to play. The waiver will be needed should a team continues to May 16th national playoffs.

We don’t have these matches posted online via the CMS system. Scores will be collected from the referees and posted online to macrugby.org.

Margy Thomas will be there in person at 10am on Saturday to start Roster ID checks for the first teams playing and sign Roster forms. The teams that advance will need to save the signed roster form for future reference.

CIPP for Fall 2013
