All games to commence with a pink ball. If the supply of pink balls is exhausted then red balls may be used.
In the lowest division, a wide ball shall not be rebowled but two additional runs (on top of any scored from byes) shall be awarded. This does not apply in the final over.
Teams may, if they wish, apply to the League to play in coloured kit. Their application will only be successful if guarantees are met. One such condition being that only players wearing the prescribed kit may take the field. Failure in this regard may attract penalties.
The League will establish social media connections.
All teams must register their result (scores) on Playcricket by midnight on the Sunday after the game.
NEW COMPETITION the following were aired for future discussion.
