27. Match Control

27.1 Each Premier League team must have a minimum of six (6) players present and be ready to play at the scheduled start time of each match. State League teams must have a minimum of five (5) players present and ready to play at the scheduled start time of each match.

27.2.1 Teams with five (5) players must play with a "gap" to keep the rotation of the players consistent with the opposition.  A "gap" is defined as the imaginary sixth (6th) player that is not present on the court due to a team's insufficient numbers.  Each time the "gap" rotates to the service position, the serve, and by its extension, a point is forfeited by the team.
 

27.2.2 If the time between the previously concluded match (if any) and the subsequent match on any given court is less than twenty (20) minutes, a new Official Start Time for the next match must be scheduled. The new Official Start Time shall be twenty (20) minutes from the time when the preceding teams have completely cleared the court.
 

27.2.3 Each team shall be ready to take the court and ready to commence the match at the Official Start Time. A team is deemed to be ready if all players are in correct uniform and the players taking the court are eligible to participate in the match.
