Please note the following rules apply to the Year 6 Opens teams.
- All registered players in the Opens competition must be marked off on the scoresheet. Any casual / occasional / fill-in players must have their name recorded in the space provided on the scoresheet (including year group). Fill-in players may not be from another Opens team, Div 1 or Div 2.; and must be younger. Definitely not from another school.
- To clarify “occasional” : Players can only play up into an Opens team (i.e. fill in) up to three times per team per season. If a school has two Opens teams, they can fill-in three times in each team, ie up to 6 games.
- The above Players, may play in the Opens semi-finals and finals for their school Opens team.
- Players may not register in more than one Opens team, as then they would be “playing across” which is not permitted in the Opens division.
- The Committee may deduct one point from teams with a player infringement.
- If there are more than 14 teams registered, two divisions will be formed after a 5 week preliminary round of games.
- A ladder will be kept – A win equates to 2 points, a draw equates to 1 point, a loss equates to 0 points. Goal differences will also be recorded.
- Scores must be tallied on the official scoresheet and the final score noted in the space provided at the end of the game. Scores/tally’s that are made on anything other than the official scoresheet will be disregarded. One scorer (adult – no children scoring please) from each team should stand together to score throughout the entire game.
- If games are cancelled due to wet weather, we will take the score AS IS if we make half time. If the games goes over into 3/4 quarter, then THAT CURRENT SCORE COUNTS at the time of rain cancelling game. if we get into last quarter, then that CURRENT SCORE COUNTS as the final score. We do not go back to half time scores.
- Finals and play offs will be played in the two week(s) of the competition.
- See website welcome page for Opens Structure for semi-finals and Final Day.
