Residency Defined in AAU Codebook
AAU Codebook, Section 4.3, Pages 28-29
As noted above, the AAU Girls’ Basketball Handbook limits a team’s roster to three players that are not residents of the District, but are residents of a bordering district.
The purposes of determining residency for this purpose, the 2008 AAU Codebook, Bylaws Section 4.3 -- Definition of member and residency, should be consulted to determine if a player meets the residency requirements.
