The rescheduled game shall be played within 3 weeks of the originally scheduled date. If agreement cannot be reached, the Home Team shall supply three dates to the ERSL and the League will choose one of the three supplied dates.

4. How to correct the Problems - Continued 3.Ensure teams follow the scheduling of Cup and Shield games in accordance with the Bylaws. This will ensure the games are played within the specified period. Bylaw 14 or 15. Both teams must notify the ERSL of the agreed date, venue and kick off of their shield games within 7 days of the completion date of the previous round. If an agreed date, venue or kick off can not be made then the Director of Operations will decide the outcome. 4.Improve our management of the Cup and Shield to ensure no errors are made with identifying who the correct winners are of each round. 5.Need to ensure teams are aware that the standings are not final until the Fall SGM and only then if all discipline is completed.
