Proposed rule change
Proposed: Ric Bithell
Seconded: Jan Bithell
11/07/2022

Rule 35 i
Replace
"Should a team have less than this amount of players then blank cards should be inserted as appropriate"
by
"If one or both teams have fewer than 5 players, then the available players' names shall be drawn until exhausted, to complete games as far as possible. The remaining player names shall then be completed using the '3/4 player rule' (rule 35 v). A match cannot be played if a team has fewer than 3 players available."

Rule 35 ii
Replace
"No player may play more than one game in any team match."
by
"No player may play more than one game in any team match, except as prescribed in rule 35 v."

Rule 35 v
Replace ALL
by
"If one or both teams have fewer than 5 players then after the initial draw (rule 35 i) the remaining names shall be provided as follows:
For each team with fewer than 5 players available, the player drawn in game 1 will play again - in game 4 in the case of the home team, or game 5 if the away team.
For each team with only 3 players available, the player drawn in game 2 will also play again; in game 5 in the case of the home team, or game 4 if the away team.
Players playing twice will be against the break unless both are playing twice in which case normal breaks apply.
Match points will be awarded as normal but the score of any 3/4 player rule players (i.e. second games) will not count towards player stats."

[Note: This rule meets the two criteria:
1. No two players will play each other twice.
2. A 'short' team (against a full team) will always lose one of their breaks.]
