Message to all teams/players in Gloucester City Skittles League 

With the 2021-22 season nearly upon us the committee has put together some important information that all teams need to know before September. 

Safety Measures 

We would advise that all teams provide hand sanitizer for their players to use at every game throughout the season. We would also ask that the home team provides hand sanitizer for the sticker to use. 

The wearing of face masks will be down to the individual. 

Rule 3e – Home team to provide the balls for games. 

This will continue to be the case but the away team can bring and use their own set if they feel they want to. If this happens the home team can’t use the away team’s balls. 

Ten players per team 

Fielding a team of ten players every week going forward could become an issue with individuals having to isolate/quarantine as per the law. It has been decided that if a team is struggling to field ten players for a game then they can play with a maximum of two players short for any game (one player per half only) where the missing player will be marked on the scorecard as “A. N. OTHER” and that score will match the lowest individual score in their own half. This will be monitored so that teams are not over using the gesture and teams are encouraged to sign as many players on as possible to limit the above happening too often.

"We have had a few issues with AN OTHER that need to be cleared up.

If a team has 9 players it is completely up to them when they play the 4 players in a half. The opposition should NOT get involved in any way with the decision. Also remember AN OTHER is matched with the lowest score in the half NOT the game." This will be a temporary adjustment just for one season and will be addressed at the 2022 AGM to see if it continues. 

Postponement of games due to Covid isolation 

If for any reason a team has lots of members isolating due to Covid and feel they can’t play a fixture then they must contact either Mark Cornwell or Bryan Fisher and explain the teams’ circumstances and a decision will be made.
