5.3.11
In Tier 1, the current Elite Squad Representative Dispensation Allowance is removed, to be replaced by regulation that limits the Salary Cap Value of a Club Trained Player at a nominal value of £100k (i.e. for any Club Trained Player with a Salary Cap Value of over £100k, his Salary Cap Value will be assessed at £100k only with any additional wage not included in his salary cap value). This would reward clubs for producing elite talent and give them an opportunity to retain this talent in the face of competition from other sports and competitions.'"
Really like this new rule. it should really encourage the clubs to build their own squads. Doesn't it go away from what the salary cap was meant to guard against though. If you develop 10 superstars of the game, highly unlikely I know, you can in effect pay them each £250,000 to keep them at the club but only list 1 million on the cap. So you spend 2.5 million on just ten players before even paying the rest of the squad. However unlikely this would happen it could quite easily lead to clubs suffering financially.
