REGISTRATION
Its is compulsory to pay Sportsworld Liverpool's player registration. (Cost)
Unregistered and uninsured players are not permitted to take the court.
Any team playing with unregistered players will lose 2 POINTS per unregistered player.

FILL IN PLAYERS
In stating the above, we do allow teams to use fill in players for two games only. (Fill in players can not score) 
This can help teams out when they are short and also encourages new players to teams.
If the fill in plays a third game they must pay their registration or points will be deducted.
Players and fill in players must also remember to sign on score-sheets, and be marked off on team cards in order to qualify for semis and finals.

QUALIFICATION
Each week teams and or captains are to mark off their players on their yellow player registration card.
Players must have played at least 5 games in any one team to qualify for the semis and finals.

FORFEITS
Teams that nominate to participate in our competitions are obligated to pay & play the full season.

RULE 1 - Forfeiting a game will cost your team their normal match payment.
RULE 2 - Forfeiting a game on the day will cost your team their normal match payment PLUS the other teams match payment.
RULE 3 - Any team forfeiting a second time will be replaced in the competition.
Full payments are due on the teams next game.

Teams that are short of players can phone the centre and ask for fill-ins players to be organised, as opposed to forfeiting.
Although for full game points to be awarded at least half the registered side must be present.
Occasionally and only when there is court availability we can organise to reschedule matches.

All forfeiting rules are clearly stated on the notice boards within the centre and clearly stated on team cards.
