Correct -
From the Rules / Club Pass Policy
Can a player play in a division above his current level of play?
Yes, Athena and Classic division players may use the Club Pass System to play either in the same age
group at a higher division of play or in an older age group at the same or higher division of play. A
player may not play up an age group but in a lower division. Academy U12 players may use the Club
Pass System to play on their club‟s U13 first and/or second team only. U-14 Recreation players can
use the Club Pass System to play for a U-16 team. U16 and above recreation players may use the Club
Pass System to play with an older division team in the Recreation Program only.

This affects my daughter's u13 team in a really negative way if I understand the rules correctly. Her team is a u13 team. Her club is the 3rd level team at her club in her age group. According to the rules, the only player that can guest pass is a younger player from the same or lower division or the same age group at a lower division of play only. However, the rule specifically states that a u12 player can only play up an age group if it's for the club's first or second team only and my daughter's team is the club's third team and since there are no lower teams at my daughter's club in her age group this effectively means my daughter's team cannot have a guest player....at all. Seems to be a glitch in the rules that only affects a u13 3rd club team. Any thoughts?

My team manager access to our U12 team allows me to player pass a U12 to any of our U13 or U14 teams. There are multiple teams in both of those age groups. I know we've lent U12s to our U13 3rd and 4th teams. So maybe that's what the rules say but the Affinity system allows something different. I think allowing a player pass to only the 1st or 2nd team is pretty arbitrary. One club's 2nd team may be Athena F while another club's 4th team may be Athena C. Why would it be ok for a top U12 player to play Athena F but not Athena C in those situations?
Our club tends to player pass within the same age group but that doesn't work for the lowest team. They have to go to the U12s when short. It's my understanding that they can't player pass from rec since the girls who are U13 age in rec play on U14 teams and you can't play down. They have to have a place to get guests regardless of what number team they are in the age group.
