This Will be a Captain / Rider Lottery system. We need at least as many captains as riders for the league. If we end up Captain heavy some captains may need to volunteer to be a rider some nights and this will be predetermined before the final schedule is posted. When all league entries are obtained I will post a schedule. If a captain or rider cant make it, a sub will be allowed to fill in. If you pull a no show(pending major emergency) you may be banned from the league and your fee will be forfeit.
Captain and Rider Etiquette… Captains and riders will have to figure out themselves their plan, and the sharing of expenses. Poor sortsmanship or problematic Riders or Captains can be banned from the league.
