2026 Winter Teams - now due FRI 20TH FEB
Hi EDPL Members,

HAPPY NEW YEAR to you all!

As you know.. 2026 Winter Club/Team Applications were due to close on Monday 2nd February.

However, EDPL Execs have agreed to extend the teams closing date to FRIDAY 20TH FEBRUARY.

This will allow clubs a couple of extra weeks to discuss & decide their teams, division preferences etc.
(if clubs can still get their team application forms in well before the new closing date, if possible, that would be great!).

The Points sub-committee are meeting soon, to finalize 2026 Winter team points caps, & values (minimum, “new”, forfeit).

This message has also been emailed to all clubs' Executive Committees.

Please find attached 2026 Winter Season Team application form (ignore 2nd Feb close date).

2025 Hearings Info & Penalties !
EDPL has a Constitution and By-Laws, as well as 3 official “Policies”…

• “Violence & Aggression Policy” (VA)
• “Member Protection Policy” (MP)
• “Social Media Policy” (SM)

All of the above are available on the EDPL Website, and all members should be made aware of all information!

Last year, 2024, EDPL had the unfortunate task of conducting 8 Hearings, either “Delegates Tribunal Hearing” or “EDPL Executive Hearing”.

This year in 2025 there’s been an improvement, with EDPL only having to conduct 2 “Hearings”, however.. both Hearings were for official complaints made against the same member, for incidents 6 months apart!

EDPL also held an Exec Meeting with another member, to discuss a complaint that didn’t warrant a “Hearing” as such, but… required discussion & instruction on correct procedures.

We currently have a few Members who are on “Life Bans” from EDPL, as well as 3 members currently who we were unable to conduct Hearings for, but EDPL Exec have agreed NOT to accept their registration, indefinitely.

Please ensure all your club members (especially NEW members) are made aware of the seriousness of breaching any of the EDPL’s Constitution, By-Laws & Policies, and what the consequences are!

Please refer to the attached document, listing this year's Hearings.. date, breach, type of hearing, & penalty…

Regards,
EDPL Executive Committee 2025

2025 AEBF/Pool Vic Affiliation Fees OWED
Hi Club Execs,


2025 AEBF / POOL VIC AFFILIATION FEES OWED - VIA PlayHQ


This was discussed again at the Delegates meeting this week…


Reminder… any EDPL Member in Winter or Summer 2025 who still hasn’t paid their Affiliation Fees via PlayHQ, must pay by 31st December 2025.

• If a member played Winter 2025, and still owes Affiliation Fees, and if they don’t pay by 31st December, they can’t continue to play Summer after 31st December 2025, (IF they’re currently playing Summer), until their owed Affiliation Fees are paid for 2025 !

• OR… if still owe Affiliation Fees from Winter 2025, but NOT playing Summer Season, then they can’t play next Winter Season, until owed Fees are paid for 2025 !

• If they didn’t play Winter 2025, and have just joined up for this Summer 2025-26, then they also need to pay their 2025 Affiliation Fees before 31st December 2025.

• Also, if a member still owes their 2025 Affiliation Fees.. they can’t play in any Pool Victoria events and tournaments in 2026, Albury, state titles etc… until 2025 Fees owed are paid !


Please note… AEBF / Pool Vic Affiliation Fees are set annually, per calendar year (not per season), so members who paid in 2025 will need to renew their Affiliation for 2026 in the New Year via PlayHQ.

Please ensure all your club members are aware of these requirements listed above, as if Affiliation Fees aren’t paid… it could affect your players, teams, & Summer Finals Eligibility !
