  • During the match, no Tactical Substitutions or Reserve Replacements will be allowed in order to ensure that all players have at least 4 throws per match.
  • When using rider replacement, only reserves are allowed to cover.
  • Captains will be given a programme for every match, please use it to get your players ready before their Heats to ensure that there aren't too many delays and so that we can get through the matches as quickly as possible.
  • In each heat which is displayed on the programme players will throw in a fixed order.
  • If there is a tie in a Heat there will be a throw-off between the two players who scored the same to avoid 1/2 points.

  • If you have players that work shifts, you will be permitted to have up to 8 players in your team.
  • If a team has players who aren't available for a night, there is an order that the captain should follow when choosing a replacement:

    1.Own replacement
    2. Use an unattached player (someone at the bar on the night)
    3. Rider replacement
    4. If 2 players are missing, use 1 unattached player and 1 R/R
