Bundesliga age limit?


Recommended Posts

hello

Im playing in the bundesliga Germany. I have a couple of 17 years old players that I want to give some gametime but I cant. I cant play them, why? the rules say that players under 17 are not allowed to play but these are 17

There may be a restricted age limit at the start of the year/start of the season? So if they turn 17 after a certain date, they have to wait until the next year? (That's all I can think of, I haven't spent much time playing in the Bundesliga.)

Thanks for the answer. That may be the case. They both turned 17 in april, so maybe I can play them next season

Under German employment laws anyone aged 17 or younger is not allowed to work past eight o'clock at night. 

Didn;t Fergie get done for something similar when he brought Darren Fletcher on as substitute for his debut, playing a mid-week game in European competition, in Scotland.

I remember Schalke had to get written permission for Draxler to play when he was younger and extra written for evening games as German employment rules apparently prevent anyone under 17 from 'working' after a certain time.
