An application can be submitted informally by email to 📬 dv[at]queerleague.de.
To ensure the application can be processed in full, it should include the following information:
• Applicant and team
• Subject of the application
• Previous wording (optional for amendment requests)
• Application text
• Reasoning
Important:
The application must be submitted no later than six weeks before the Delegates Assembly (DV) so it can be considered for the respective meeting.
From the 2026 season onwards, all group coordinators will have access to the QVL Cloud. There you’ll find general documents and information about the season—many of which are also available on the website.
In addition, each group and each level has its own folder where you can upload your scanned match report sheets.
Scanning is really easy with your smartphone:
• iOS: via the Notes app or Files app
• Android: via the Google Drive app
No, QVL does not have accident insurance.
In the event of sports accidents, your own health insurance is always responsible.
However, QVL does have liability insurance.
This covers damage to property or people caused by carelessness.
Example 1: A door is unlocked, a draft occurs, and a window slams shut and breaks—this damage is covered.
Example 2: During catering, someone spills something and doesn’t wipe it up. A person slips and gets injured—insurance applies here as well.

No, membership in another club is not necessary. With the QVL, you sign up for your own membership for the respective playing season.

If your team can’t send its own delegate to the General Assembly, you can delegate your vote to another team. Each team can receive a maximum of one additional vote—on top of its own. You’ll find the vote transfer form in the General Assembly documents, which will be sent to you with the invitation in October, or on our Documents page.

The form must be completed and sent 1 week before the meeting to: 📬 dv[at]queerleague.de.

Formal reporting processes

Every player must be in the QVL become a member; registration is done via a team by December 31 of the previous year.

During the season, Late Registration is possible at any time, as long as the maximum team size (15 players) is not exceeded.

Important: Every player must fill out the registration form.

For this, we provide a form on the website.

Team registration (for the next season and for the Delegates Assembly) usually starts in mid-September – deadline October 31 and is completed by the team representative.

The team can be deregistered after the season ends up until the start of the Delegates Assembly if it no longer wants to take part in the QVL next year.

Deregistering a team after the Delegates Assembly always comes with penalty fees. For more information, it’s worth taking a look at the Financial Regulations.

A player can be deregistered at any time, as long as that player has not yet been fielded during the season.

A player can only switch to another team up until the start of the season.

During the ongoing season—i.e., after the very first matchday of a season—members are only allowed once to fill in for another team (same or higher level).

A player can still be added to the team up to the current matchday each time—please keep in mind the maximum of 15 people per team.

You can fill in for another team once during the season—just make sure you pay attention to the respective level!

  • An A player can only fill in at A level
  • A B player can fill in at levels A and B
  • A C player can fill in at levels A, B, and C
  • A D player can fill in at any level

Organisation and finances

Match report sheets can be requested for review by the team contacts or their deputies. Your respective GruKos will be happy to provide them again.

The deadline for motions is 6 weeks before the General Assembly. Important: if the General Assembly takes place on a Saturday, the deadline expires on the Sunday six weeks before.

You can view the responsibilities on the website here under Contact.

The team captain receives an account statement twice a year (April and October) by email. If you have any further questions, the Finance board is happy to help. Contact: Norman 📬 finanzen[at]queerleague.de

The sanctions imposed differ from team to team. The team captain receives an account statement twice a year (April and October), where you can see your team’s penalty fees. In general: if you’ve met all deadlines and followed the rules, no penalty fees apply.

You can read about what penalty fees are imposed for in the Finance & Competition Regulations.
