SUDDEN DEATH Explanation:
Finish current game (all players in round)+ 1 more game (each player). Compare score:
- If both teams are tied for total score; one more game will be played per person
Additional Notes:
- No timeouts allowed
- A player on the team roster, who qualified for playoffs, may substitute in for a player.
- A substitution must be between ROUNDS
- All players can be removed.
- If a player is removed from a match they have return to match in same SLOT in scoresheet
- A player arriving late traditionally missed the round as the captain had to post a player in their place. Now with substitutions, the late arriving player can be substituted in when they arrive and/or when next round starts.
- A player may be having a bad night and now the captain can switch them out with another teammate who can try to pick them up.
- If a match is trending towards a blow-out overall, a captain can switch out players to get them into the match so at least they played.
- Everyone has a chance to play.
Captain, remind your players of the event and the start times.
Good luck and have fun !
