approximately one game a week or a minimum of 3 games in a four-week period.
It is up to the opposing coaches to arrange a game time. If there
is going to be a delay the coach shall notify their opponent and the
commissioner as soon as possible before the scheduled contest.
To keep things moving if there is going to be
a delay in completing a game, please find someone to fill in.
Game reporting to the
league is the responsibility of the home team coach.

7. Participation and Communication
Participation is voluntary,
however if you're signed up for this league you are expected to honor your
commitment. Failure to complete games in a timely manner may result in a
coach being expelled from the league. It is understandable that
situations may arise where a game may be played late or a week missed. COMMUNICATION
is vital. Keep your opponent and the commissioner informed when games must be
delayed.
Repeated failure to participate in a timely manner will result
in your team being assigned to a coach on the waiting list.
Primary communication and the
dissemination of information will take place by email. Members are also
required to sign up for AIM.

8. Sportsmanship
These leagues are about
competition and gamesmanship. Unsportsmanlike conduct will not be tolerated.
Respect your competitors and above all have fun. The commissioner
will make a determination on most all disputes. All decisions rendered by the
commissioner will be final.
Since tie-breakers do not
involve points scored, please play nice.
If necessary I’ll appoint a
committee of league coaches to resolve issues involving the commissioner.
