| Another Reminder - By-Law 3.3 |
Please remember EDPL By-Law 3.3 - Especially on a BYE night!
"A team may relegate a maximum of two (2) players from the team that last played. Where the higher team is facing a BYE or Non–Scheduled Match, then any relegated players can only be players with a point value of LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO the average point value of the division from which they have been relegated from".
Average Point Value for Divisions...
Premier = 21.7
1st Div = 15.4
2nd Div = 12.1
3rd Div = 8.6
4th Div = 6.5
For example, when 1st Div team has a BYE, then that 1st Div team can only drop a maximum of 2 players, who are 15.4 points or less, down to their next highest division team.
Please ensure that if your team facing a BYE drops players down that week, that they are NOT exceeding the average points of the higher division, as listed above. |

| Reminder - By-Law 3.3 |
Please remember EDPL By-Law 3.3
"A team may relegate a maximum of two (2) players from the team that last played. Where the higher team is facing a BYE or Non–Scheduled Match, then any relegated players can only be players with a point value of LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO the average point value of the division from which they have been relegated from".
Average Point Value for Divisions...
Premier = 21.7
1st Div = 15.4
2nd Div = 12.1
3rd Div = 8.6
4th Div = 6.5
For example, when 2nd Div team has a BYE, then that 2nd Div team can only drop a maximum of 2 players, who are 12.1 points or less, down to their next highest division team.
Please note, there is a Bye in prems every week (1 team per week), and so far no Prems teams have breeched this by-law.
There has only been 1 breech so far this season, when all 2nd Div had a BYE/non-scheduled match, a team dropped 2 players down, but one of the players was over 12.1 points.
The ladder has been adjusted accordingly for that week.
Soon, all of 2nd Div have a BYE (1st June), all of 1st and 3rd Div have a BYE (15th June), and there are other BYE weeks further into the season.
Please ensure that if your team facing a BYE drops players down that week, that they are NOT exceeding the average points of the higher division, as listed above. |
| Reminder - Match starting time! |
It has been brought to our attention, than some matches are starting later than 7:30pm!
Please ensure all teams are abiding by EDPL By-Law 8.7...
* "Matches shall commence PRIOR to 7:30pm (earlier starts, i.e.. from 7:00pm are to be encouraged"
So... 7:30pm is the absolute LATEST the first frames should have started by! Don't wait until 7:30pm, & then think about starting the match, start from 7:00pm if you can! & for Mitcham & Croydon venue home games, the matches MUST start at 7:00pm, as they only have 2 tables.
Also, please note By-Law 8.7.4...
"Two players per team have until 8:30pm to arrive at the venue. If they have not arrived at the venue prior to time, the teams will skip to the next frame. If they fail to arrive at the venue by 8:30pm, the team will forfeit any scheduled (skipped) frames that the player was due to play. Arrival times cannot be extended
(there are no "late passes" issued anymore). |
| Venues with 2 pool tables, earlier starts advised |
Just a reminder that Croydon Hotel (for 3rd Div) & Mitcham Hotel (for 4th Div) only have 2 pool tables, so matches played at these 2 venues need to start as early as possible from 7pm onwards, so as not to run too late.
Please refer to By-law 8.7 - “Matches shall commence prior to 7.30pm [earlier starts, i.e. from 7.00pm are to be encouraged].â€
Could 3rd & 4th Div clubs/teams please ensure their players are aware of this, thankyou 🙂 |

With our 50th year coming up in 2023, we are looking for members past & present to assist with "EDPL...The First 50 Years" (...they said it wouldn't last!)
It's anticipated that we can produce a full history of the Eastern Districts Pool League Inc. For this we would require photographs, memories, anecdotes, interesting facts, milestones etc.
This is open to all, & we look forward to your participation.
We will endeavour to conduct interviews with all surviving founding members, to record their earliest EDPL memories.
