🎯 Pre-Play Match Release Guide

Need to play your match early? No problem!

If your team needs a future scheduled match released early (for Pre-Play) so you can use Scorekeeper, just email or text the League Office with:

πŸ† Your Team Name and/or Number

πŸ“… The Week of Play you want released early

πŸ•’ When We Can Release Future Matches

Tues, Wed, or Thurs teams:
πŸ—“οΈ We can post your matches on Friday.
βœ… Please get your request in by 10am Friday Morning.

Fri, Sat, Sun, or Mon teams:
πŸ—“οΈ We can post your matches on Tuesday.
βœ… Please get your request in by 10am Tuesday Morning.

⚠️ A Few Friendly Reminders

⏰If you miss the above request window, you’ll need to wait until the next week.

πŸ“You can always keep the match on paper if you miss the window and enter the score once it’s released.

The League Office encourages all teams to look over the session schedule, chat with their teammates, and plan ahead for any potential scheduling conflicts that might be easier to handle with a Pre-Play match.

Please review the Bylaws for more information regarding Pre-Play (under "Rescheduled Matches").
