Already this season we have had a number of games cancelled on the night of the game with very little notice. This is not acceptable. All teams should follow rule 11 (see below). If a team cancels on the night the game will be awarded to the opposite side, unless under extenuating circumstances, this will be decided by the League Secretary on the night. Games should be played with 3 players (4-a-side) or 5 players (6-a-side) .
Rule 11 Teams should give at least 24 hours notice to cancel a match. Teams that cannot fulfil a fixture date will forfeit any points, and 1 point per singles + 1 point for a win will be awarded to the opponents (Total of 5 points for 4-a-side, 7 points for 6-a-side). During the winter league the opponents will automatically get a W towards the most wins comp. However, by MUTUAL agreement, you may play a fixture on another night other than the match night and this will count as match fulfilled. THE SECRETARY MUST BE INFORMED OF ALL CANCELLED AND REARRANGED MATCHES STRAIGHT AWAY.
A 3 strike rule applies to any team failing to notify an opposing team on three occasions, in these circumstances that team will be withdrawn from the League.
