*Team A is short players

*Team B has a full roster

*Team B captain chooses one singles player from Team A, and matches them with two singles players from Team B.

*That Team A singles player will then be competing against two Team B players

This allows a team short players to still have an opportunity to score 6 points, and ensures that a player on a team with a full roster still gets to play competitive disc golf.

NOTES: 

• This should solve situations in which a team has only 5 or 4 players (4 player roster = 1 doubles pair, and two players playing singles against two opposing team players). We don’t expect to need a solution for 3 players.
• Holley’s Rule should be used due to unforeseen circumstances. Following the event, use of this substitution rule will be reviewed by the board. If the rule is deemed as being ‘taken advantage of’, forfeiture of a round(s) can be enforced
• During event: A captain requiring use of Holley’s rule should notify the board member(s) present and ensure correct execution of the rule.

Execution of Holley’s Rule:

• Team A Captain providing Blind Roster:
  • Team A Captain selects players to fill doubles and available singles spots
  • Team A hands off to Team B captain and Team B captain completes matchups, choosing which Team A player will play which Team B players in order to execute Holley’s rule

• Team B Captain providing Blind Roster:
  • Team A captain notifies Team B captain which players are available, and who is unable to play doubles (*players with a captains rating, players who already competed in doubles that day)
  • Team B Captain creates Blind Roster, but also selects which Team A player will be competing against which Team B players for execution of Holley’s rule
  • Team A captain will fill in remaining matchups
