Hi!
How do you know the schedule and matchups already if you don't know what clans will make it in?

agreed seb, don't you usually take a few days off to discuss whos in and whos not? any clans who don't make it you would have to redo the schedule therefore possibly asking for lists again.

not getting at you sarah but seems rushed.

Well done to everyone for making it into the league. Please will all captains, vice capt/s and players read through the FBL rules,

http://sites.google.com/site/funkybilliardleague/home-2/rules

We are looking at having minimal defaults this season,but sometimes unplayed games are unavoidable. In previous seasons teams have lost defaults purely by not sending the correct information for the default panel. Guidelines are below for all captains :

13.0 How to prepare default information for the default panel ( capts/ vice capt guidelines)
1) The fixture
2) Players concerned
3) Messages that were sent/received(supply copies of messages sent throughout the fixture trying to get game arranged ,3+ messages= max effort)
4) Player activity
5) Thread posts regarding default game (please supply page no. and thread or the message link)
6) When subs were offered and made

Teams will be penalised for numerous defaults against them

Any questions regarding rules, or any other FBL matter please offline message me
Best of luck for season 4
