Bradford Tigers have been booted out of the Bradford Mutual Sunday School League.
Tigers' league membership was tenuous at best after they failed to turn up to the league's annual meeting in November.
But they sealed their own fate when they did not turn up either to this month's league management meeting at the Carlton Club in Little Horton Lane, despite reading of their perilous position in the T&A.
Tigers owe the league a total of £230 and none of their players will be allowed to play for any other club in any league until these dues have been paid.
Tigers, who won the Sir James Roberts Cup in 2004 and 2005 and won Division C in 2003, Division B in 2004 and were Division A runners-up in 2005, joined the league in 2003.
The league's fixtures for 2007 will now have to be redrafted with seven teams in each of the three divisions.
There will now be inter-divisional matches between Division A and Division B, teams in each section playing 21 games. Teams in Division C will only play 18 times.
