The PRDA plays a six player format. That is, if a team is to play each leg at full strength, it will need to have a minimum of six players present that night. The game format has been changed for this season.
A league match is essentially divided into three distinct parts, which are played sequentially on one board:
An individual player may play up to three games per league match by playing one 501, one Cricket, and one individual game (301 or cricket). Captains submit the next player(s) just before each game allowing for more strategic player scheduling.
Our old format was the same as above, except for the individual games which were all 301s. Many visitors from the mainland had commented that our format was a very tough one. Reasons for wanting to change the format by the Captains is still beyond this writer's comprehension...
