1.00 Match Preliminaries
1.01 The host sets up the 1st course. The defending winner in a challenge
series will go first. If it is a new challenge series, a coin flip will
determine the starter.
1.02 If played at a neutral site, the owner of the equipment will set up the
first course.
1.03 The host must provide refreshment, snacks and a bathroom.
1.04 If played at a neutral site, players must fend for themselves.
1.05 Challenge matches and Tournaments will be played to a conclusion. No
stopping because of weather or injury. Time limits may be set, but must be
announced at the beginning of the competition. A match or tournament
suspended due to time limit will be continued at the same location on ASAP.
One full game(forward and backward) must be complete before play is stopped.
1.06 Though some extreme croquet clubs condone cheating, this is one area
that will lead to a hardcore ass kickn' if caught during our matches. If
you get away with cheating during our little game, you'll have to answer to a
higher referee when you unfortunately die, due to a slow, debilitating,
crippling disease which you will be infected with.
1.07 Any situation not covered in these rules will be voted on by the
players, if no conclusion can be found, a fistfight will decide
the outcome.
If you follow these rules, you will eat up a chunk of your summer. GO PLAY NOW!
