Disciplinary Policy: Guidance for Unit Officials

Points unit officials to ACBL's official FAQ explaining how the August 2025 disciplinary policy affects their responsibilities.

Unit officials play a role in applying ACBL's disciplinary policies at the local level. To support the August 2025 policy update, ACBL published a dedicated FAQ for unit officials.

Use it to understand how the standardized disciplinary statuses, good-standing restrictions, and limited-club-play eligibility rules affect the responsibilities of units and their officials.
