Competition Format
Primary  TBA
   
Secondary  

Format:

Eight team split round robin and a final.

Arrival Time:

9.15am

Match Format:

The format of the competition will be a split round-robin with a final between the winners of each pool.  In the case of less than full entries, then a split round robin will be played if there are greater than 5 teams.

Matches are to be of 60 minute duration for split round robins or as communicated in the draw for full round robins.  The finishing time must not vary. If innings are not even at ‘time', scores revert back to even innings. If the team batting second has scored at least one more run than the first team and they are still at bat, then that team shall be the winner.

Points are to be awarded for the round-robin matches to determine the winners of each sub-group on the following basis:

Win: 2 points      draw: 1 point    loss: 0 points

Should two teams finish the competition with the same number of points, the relative positions will be determined by the result of the round robin match between these two teams.  If this was a draw or if more than two teams are equal then run percentage will be used.  In baseball, percentage is calculated viz. [(runs for) / (runs for plus runs against)] x 100.

When doing these calculations involving a three way tie, the convener should only include the results of the 3 teams tied NOT the results from the games with the fourth team. Please note when doing calculations in a two way tie ALL teams’ results are to be used!

Teams are restricted to a maximum of 16 players for the day.
