First proposed change because we recently played on an (un-named) awful table, with horrible cracked and broken balls. At 7.30 the home team changed the balls to a new set, negating our practice.

Current;


1.2.3. They will also make sure the pool table is available for the visiting
team to start practice 30 minutes prior to start time, and that the table
is brushed/wiped down, and in good playing order (Please work with
the bar owners on this issue).

Proposed change number two
Because we had to reschedule recently. Some captains (Sam from JR pub and Kiho from Woodstock) were very helpful andaccommodating. One (un-named captain) offered only one date in the whole upcoming season and that was within the time we were still away. The current wording suggests that the captains should try to accommodate but falls short of explicitly saying so.


Current


1.1.10. Teams that require rescheduling MUST contact the other
team’s captain 24 hours prior to the scheduled time. The League
President must be notified also. If the request to reschedule is less
than 24 hours prior to the match, the other Team is not obliged to
comply, but it is strongly encouraged to do so, if possible.

to find a compromise date. The League
