Ebbsfleet United face having to register some of their youth players for the first team as they battle the effects of their small squad.
Fleet could not name a full substitute's bench for their 4-2 defeat at Braintree on Monday.
"You can see that the squad is lacking in numbers," manager Liam Daish told BBC Radio Kent.
"If we can't get new players, it'll be a case of registering some 16 or 17-year-olds, so we can fill a bench."
He added: "We can't fill a bench at the moment and we've got a couple of suspensions coming up.
"I'm going to chat with a few people on Wednesday and see what the score is."
