For MID-WEEK matches, the actual dates when the matches may be played will be just BEFORE Dates 1 through 5 (which are all Fridays) depending on which evening the Home Club meets. By the end of Date A (which doesn't change) the HOME team must have chosen which THREE of these dates it would prefer to play the match, and offered these THREE dates to its opponent. Note that they don't all have to be on the same weekday, but they MUST be in three different weeks. By the end of Date B (which also doesn't change) the AWAY team must have selected ONE of these three dates and notified the HOME team of its decision. The match will be played on this date.

For WEEK-END matches, the actual dates when the matches may be played will be the Saturdays and Sundays just AFTER Dates 1 through 5 (which are all Fridays) giving TEN possible dates. By the end of Date A (which doesn't change) the HOME team must have chosen on which FOUR of these dates (which must include at least one Saturday, at least one Sunday, and include at least 3 different weekends) it would prefer to play the match, and offered these FOUR dates to its opponent. By the end of Date B (which also doesn't change) the AWAY team must have chosen ONE of these four dates and notified the HOME team of its selection. The match will be played on this date.

Penalties for missed deadlines

If the Home captain fails to offer the required dates by the "Date A" deadline, then he must still make a suitable offer by "Date A plus 7 days" but for this later offer the "Date 1" option, on which the match might have been played, is no longer available, so there are now only 4 weekends for the Home team to choose from. The date by which the Away team must accept one of these dates will also be delayed by 7 days.

If the Home Captain also misses the "later deadline" of Date A plus 7 days, then the Away team can pick any of the SIX weekend dates from "Dates 3, 4, or 5" and they must inform the Home Captain of their choice by "Date B plus 7 days".

If the Away captain fails to accept one of the offered dates by (the possibly delayed) "Date B" then he may still accept any of the offered dates so long as he gives 14 days notice of this date.

At the end of the season, the number of deadlines missed by each team will be used as a tie-breaker, after Match Points and Game Points.
