10. WHAT IF I DON'T HAVE A FULL TEAM |
Q. What if I don’t have
a full team, can I still play?
A. Yes,
we accept full team, small group and individual registrations. As a small group
or individual, we will place you ith other players of the same registration
type to create a full team which plays together for the duration of the season.
Unfortunately, individual and small group registrations cannot be guaranteed
until very close to the start of the season. The SSC will do as much as we can
to get everyone playing that registers, but ‘singles’ teams (teams built from
individual registrations) are always dependant on the number of total
registrants that we have.

11. A FRIEND AND I WANT TO PLAY TOGETHER, IS THIS POSSIBLE? |
Q. A friend and I want
to play, can we be guaranteed to be on the same team?
A. Yes.
There are two ways to ensure you are placed on the same team. 1) Register on
the same form together. Doing so means the SSC cannot separate you – you will
automatically be placed on a team together. Or, if you’d prefer to register
separately, you can still ensure you play together by putting comments on your
registration form which indicate who you’d like to play with.
