OK, Balti got it right, last-but-one point under "Tournament Organisation" on the green sheet: " If a team is late for their game; 1. Please ensure that they are not still playing their previous game (and try to find out if they are waiting at another pitch - you may be wrong); 2. Teams get five minutes grace; 3. Accumulate points at the end of each minute. (Note: you need not play a game in which the opposition cannot field a team of seven legitimate players, and a team cannot call a time out unless they have seven players with which to start the game) " My apologies to Chris/Marv for suggesting that this should be mentioned in the tournament literature - it was, it just looks like most of us didn't read the info that we were given...
