Scenarios:

Scenario One; Membership Dissolves: Anytown, USA provides a city wide co-educational soccer league for city residents. Two divisions are created, one “Competitive” (CO) and one “For Fun” (FF). FF league team, Team Townies, decides it wants to win the league by adding players from league CO. However, there is a league rule prohibiting players from league CO from playing in league FF. Team Townies decides it will (intentionally or unintentionally) break said rule because, in a league of 20 teams, skill level monitoring is not practiced or enforced. Team Generic loses to Team Townies in the Championship Game after CO player scores 3 goals in a 3-2 win. Team Generic is upset after competing all season with eligible players to get the championship game, only to lose it in the final game to a player who was not rightfully participating. Team Generic is concerned with the parity of the league now that Team Townie has broken the league rules without resistance and unknowingly encouraged other teams to do the same. League participation drops as rosters are saturated with upper-tier players. Frustration grows with beginners competing against those playing for titles instead of player development and entertainment, forcing a sense of inadequacy and harboring a decline in league membership.

Scenario Two; League Liability: Anytown, USA is the administrator of an adult hockey league at the local rink. The league will consist of 6 teams due to the small contingency of players in the area. Team Bruiser is playing Team Happy in the final game of the regular season. Team Bruiser is vying for the fourth playoff spot and needs a win against Team Happy to qualify, but sees a tremendous obstacle in front of them as Team Happy is the first place team in the league. Team Bruiser decides it would take an abrasive approach to the game by “setting the tone,” despite the low contact league premise. In the second period Joe Allstar assumes the role of the intimidator, and drops the gloves against a player of Team Happy. The referee issues Mr. Allstar a Game Misconduct and removes Joe from the game, then reports him to the League Commissioner who suspends Joe for the duration of the season and five games into the next. The next week (the first round of the playoffs) Joe shows up at the rink despite the suspension, and takes the ice for fourth seeded Team Bruiser against top seeded Team Happy. Again, Joe takes the role as the team brute. This time, however, Joe wants the misconduct to “leave a mark.” As soon as the puck is dropped, Joe, stick in hand, swings his stick across the face of the player across from him. Player Innocent, on the ice and sprinkling blood, is seriously injured. The referees grab Joe immediately and show him the door. Joe walks to the locker room yelling with every step. An ambulance is called and Player Innocent is carted to the hospital. Player Innocent is the new recipient of 32 stitches and a gap in his teeth where his central incisor formerly resided. Player Innocent, lying in his hospital bed still recovering from the severe concussion he suffered, is visited by his teammates after the game. Player Memory, staring at his teammate in pain, says to his teammates, “You know, come to think of it, he was the very same guy who received a Game Misconduct last week for fighting. He wasn’t supposed to be playing tonight. I just finished law school and passed the bar exam, and took an entire course on company liabilities,” he said. “Anytown Hockey League did not keep that guy from taking the ice after they knew he is a threat to the other game participants, and even suspended him for it. Anytown Hockey League is now liable for your injuries. I will represent you pro bono on pure principle.”
