Meet ONTIME at the Leys pool. It will be a very tight schedule, so if you are not ready to play at the specified time, the game will start anyway. If you want to conceed, the other team is given a 5-0 win.

Players may only play for one team (except for CULWPC and Addies)

Any college may have two non-college players play for them during cuppers but may only have ONE in the water at any time. Providing that:

The players' colleges have not entered their own team.

The blues rule is complied with. (see rule 4)

That the college has NO blues players of its own.

All matches except the final will be 5 minutes one way. This means the games will be very short, but this is due to time restrictions. You will have 2 minutes to warm up before each match. The team on the left of the play list will be the team DEFENDING the DEEP end and will wear BLUE hats. Please try and tell your team about the need to be on time and ready to enter the water immediately they have their warm up time. The matches will start on time, otherwise we wont fit in all the matches. The final will be 5 minutes each way.

You may be asked to provide a referee for some of the matches. If you have trouble doing this please tell the league secretary.

In the event of a draw, the team with the greatest goals scored will go through. If this is the same, then the winner of the match when the two played each other will go through. In the event of a draw, the team to go through to the next round will be drawn out of a hat.

In the event of draw in the semis. Sudden death play will be played, the first team to score goes through.

In the final, if there is a draw at full time, further time will be played if possible. If not, each team will take 5 penalties, each taken by a different player of that team. The goalie is set as the one playing at the end of the game.

Any complaints should be made to the league secretary and will be dealt with on an individual basis.

The captains must tell the league secretary the score of each match once it has finished. If you need any clarification of these rules, don't hesitate to email.
