MATCHES ARE BEST OF 5 FRAMES - if a Pair wins 3 frames there is no need to play the remaining frames.
If a Pair has difficulty contacting the other Pair they must contact the Div Reps or Committee for assistance.
In general, if results are not received before the cut-off then neither Pair will go through to the next round. However, the Committee may overturn this decision if a Pair proves they have made attempts to arrange the match and they have escalated to the Div Reps/Committee beforehand.

For All Matches - If BOTH Pairs (playing each other) have opted to play Black Ball Rules they will play Black Ball Rules. ALL OTHER matches will be played using our League Rules
In the event of a dispute during a match, Pairs must refer to the rules (available on our website) for clarification. If the dispute is not covered by the rules contact the Div Reps/Committee
NOTE – FOR ROUNDS 1-3, THE FIRST PAIR DRAWN WILL BE DESIGNATED THE HOME PAIR AND THE MATCH MUST TAKE PLACE AT THEIR TEAM VENUE UNLESS OTHERWISE AGREED.
Rules
Scotch Doubles
Breaking:
- The team that wins the lag or the coin toss decides who will break.
- Players alternate turns within their team during the break and throughout the game.
- Players CAN discuss before the first shot after the break but must not communicate in any way during the visits thereafter.
Alternating Shots:
- After the break, players on the same team must alternate shots regardless of whether a ball is pocketed or not.
- The sequence must be maintained throughout the game. If Player A shoots first, Player B will shoot next, and this sequence continues.
- Breaks must also alternate per team per frame.
Communication:
- Communication between partners is allowed (see above), but it must be done before the player's shot. Discussing strategies after the player has taken their shot is not allowed and a foul will be awarded to incoming player.
Fouls:
- Standard pool foul rules apply.
- A common foul in Scotch Doubles is shooting out of turn. If a player shoots out of turn, it is considered a foul, and the incoming team receives a standard foul.
Sportsmanship:
- As with all pool games, good sportsmanship is expected. Unsportsmanlike conduct, such as distracting opponents or not respecting the alternating shot rule, can result in penalties or disqualification.
