Further to feedback regarding previous events we will adopt the point scoring convention of 2 points to be awarded each time a side is fully out, and 1 point at the end of a match for the team with most players still on the pitch. The central timer will not disclose the time as the matches draw to a close. This rule varies from that shown on the rules download. |
