Quote from: Jesse on March 28, 2026, 06:46:55 PMTo hear people talk about this, it seems like international players have had a difficult time getting visa's to work for the UFL. The league just seemingly isn't established enough. So it doesn't seem to be a case of not doing the paperwork properly or in time, just a fact of life for a foreign born player in an fledgling league.to me this is more on the ufl team, before they sign a player they should be well aware of whether he is eligible to play. As a league they should have guidelines as to this as well. otherwise they are going through all the expenses and time involved on all parties for nothing
It's not a mistake on his part. The team wants him on the roster and he wants to be there. Just passport issues.

Quote from: blue_gold_84 on March 28, 2026, 03:14:33 PMIt seems a bit odd that he could sign a contract without having his immigration status solidified/confirmed. That has to be a frustrating situation for Elgersma.
It makes me wonder how much of it is self-inflicted.
