Even if your team is struggling to raise a full squad, you should always make an effort to get all available players to show up. If less than the required number of players show up, a social match can still be run.
If your team must forfeit, please notify Try Tag Rugby at least 24 hours prior to kick-off so that your opposition can be informed. Teams that forfeit on late notice will be heavily penalised.
A team forfeiting will be recorded as a 10-0 loss. Additional penalties will be applied to teams in the following circumstances:
Less than 24 hours' notice of a forfeit and not providing 2 or more players to play a friendly
– 1 competition point deducted
Notice after 4 pm on match day (Mon-Fri evening leagues) and not providing 2 or more players to play a friendly
– 2 competition points deducted
Notice after noon on Friday (Weekend leagues) and not providing 2 or more players to play a friendly
– 2 competition points deducted
Giving no notice of forfeiting and not showing up
– 3 competition points deducted
If a team forfeits 2 matches in one season “After 4 pm on match day in Mon-Fri evening leagues, on the day in weekend leagues or complete no show”, Try Tag Rugby reserves the right to remove the team from the league.
