The playing format of the league consists of a number of sessions with up to 2 matches allocated for each session!

Any match not played in the session allocated or if no scorecard/result is received by the end of the session then the match is void. Example: Session 1 are matches/weeks 1 and 2 of the league so both these games have to be played and scorecard submitted by the last day of session 1. Once session 2 or the next respective session begins, then all matches in session 1 or the previous session are frozen and late results will not be accepted in any case. (NOTE: Any claims of points for matches not played must be done within the session allocated also!) 6. Generally, it is the responsibility of both players to ensure the match is played on time and the scorecard/result is submitted.. If a match fails to be played and a player has attempted to arrange it then they may be able to claim the match points!) All scorecards / results are are to be text into the Whats App group straight after each macth, so there's no excuse for it not being submitted on time. (NOTE: Failure to submit a scorecard will result in each player being deducted points! See rule 15) Do not arrive to any match without a scorecard! 7. Any player who forfeits 2 matches in succession will be disqualified from the league. 8. Any player who forfeits 2 matches throughout the entire league cannot claim any prize monies. 9.

(Usually the winner submits the result and scorecard but in the event of a draw either player can do so) 15. With regards to using the scoring system amd submitting results/scorecards: Ensure you are prepared and always have a scorecard with you for every match! A piece of random paper with scores scribbled on it will not be accepted! If an official scorecard is not submitted for a match then it will be voided. If the scorecard is not filled out correctly or completely, the match will also be void! Both players will be deducted 1 penalty point in all these situations! (NOTE: completely means that all boxes are filled out, week number, date, names printed, signatures, match by match result, total score etc) (correctly means that you read the actual scorecard and put the right information in the right places or your card will be invalid) To ensure players are actually playing all matches and not just filling out results, both players must print and sign their name on all scorecards! Any player found to be fixing scores or cheating will receive a max penalty deduction (6 penalty points). A second offense regarding match fixing will result in being disqualified from the league.

You are not guaranteed to get the table otherwise. (Always check what bookings are in the Calendar for the day you are to play before you fill out the booking form as you cannot edit or delete your booking once it's submitted, you will have to re-book) 17. A table which is booked for a specific time by a player for their match is their table from that time. A maximum 2 hour time window is allowed to be booked for any league match, but realistically, 1 hour is all that should be needed. 18. Anyone using a table which is pre-booked for a league match is required to move to another vacant or next available table. They can return after the match is over. 19. Regarding rules 16-18, if a table is booked and both players have not arrived up to 20 minutes into the booking then the booking is void and the table is free for use. If the players then arrive they cannot re-claim the table if being used and must re-book! 20. If a player is running late and does not give adequate notice that they will be late, then their opponant, once they are already in the venue, can claim a rack every 10 minutes starting from a quarter hour after the arranged start time. (example: match arranged 7pm, no show by 7:15pm, at 7:25pm first rack claimed, 7:35pm 2nd rack and so on) 21. Regarding late arrivals in rule 20, if racks claimed amount to 5 and the opponent still has not arrived, then the match is forfeit. (Once the match is forfeit, all match points are awarded to the player waiting in the venue. Note that no frames are awarded for walkovers or forfeits) 22. With regards to no shows or players cancelling matches - If a player doesn't show up or can't be contacted then rules 20 & 21 apply! 24 hours notice must be given in order to cancel a match. (aka the day before play) Only in extreme cases will cancellations on the day of play be accepted. Otherwise you will simply forfeit the match!. Any player that cancels any match for a 2nd time automatically forfeits the match. 23. Official 9-Ball Rules apply for the League and Shield.
