Wildcard Rules

General Rules
  • Each match consists of 6 players per team playing 12 frames.
  • Premier Division teams start each season with 4 single wildcards.
  • Division 1 teams start each season with 4 single wildcards and 1 double wildcard.
  • Only one wildcard (single or double) may be used per match.
Single Wildcards (All Divisions)

Eligibility

A team that has only 5 available players may use one single wildcard to make up a full team of 6 players.

How It Works

  • The missing player’s frames are covered by two different players, each playing one extra frame — one in each half of the match.
  • You don’t need to arrange anything with the other captain. The app runs the draw for you: when you enter a line-up of 5, it randomly picks which player plays the extra frame that half.
  • That pick stays hidden from the opposition until the frame is played, and the same player can’t take the extra frame in both halves.

Match Procedure

  1. Enter your 5 available players for the first half as normal — the app handles the rest.
  2. The app randomly draws one of them to play the extra wildcard frame. No hat, no opposing-captain draw, no separate app needed.
  3. Play the first half as normal.
  4. At half-time, enter your 5 players again for the second half.
  5. The app draws the second-half wildcard frame automatically, skipping whoever already played one in the first half.

Double Wildcards (Division 1 Only)

Eligibility

A team that has only 4 available players may use one double wildcard to make up a full team of 6 players.

How It Works

  • All 4 players will play 3 frames each (12 frames total).
  • 2 players play twice in the first half, 2 players play twice in the second half.
  • No random draw is required.
  • The team captain selects and enters players as normal.

Misuse of Wildcards

If a team:

  • Exceeds its allocated number of wildcards in a season, or
  • Misuses the wildcard rules (deliberately or accidentally),

Then all frames played while in breach of the rules will be forfeited.

Statistical Impact

Any forfeited frames:

  • Do not count as wins or losses for either team
  • Do not count towards individual player statistics for either team
