Competition 2008-09.  

Finals to be held on Saturday 25th April 2009, venue to be confirmed.

Cup Rules

Rules for All Games

Matches should be played on the date listed for each round (or before then by mutual agreement between the clubs concerned). If not played by this date then, at the committee’s discretion, both sides will be ruled out of the competition, and their next round opponents given a bye.

Clubs are asked to confirm dates with their opposite numbers as soon as possible.

Teams should comprise bona fide members of the sides listed.

The first named club will be the home side throughout.

All "first time" (ie 1st round) losers will be entered into a plate competition.

Standard Cup Rules will apply for games (excluding the finals) that are drawn at no-side:
1 10 minutes each way
2 If then still drawn, count-back on number of tries scores
3 If still equal then count-back on number of successful conversions
4 If still equal then away side goes through

(NB We consider the "sudden death" option to be fraught with some difficulties at this stage in the competition)

The home side will be responsible for providing a referee (The host club/Societies for the finals on April 25th).

All results to Howard Keeling within 24 hours by the winning side. All other administration by TBA

All "finalists" (plus any others!) and/or their sponsors will be asked to donate raffle prizes for April 25th. This raffle to be organised on the day by the host club.
