WHAT IS A WAITING LIST?
The waiting list is designed to allow existing and new teams an equal opportunity to participate in Sport For Fun. The waiting list is posted at the bottom of each sports draw and will indicate the start date for the team.
If the draw is full when you enter or reenter a team you will go on the wating list. Date payment of your new games determines your team's position onn the waiting list. To avoid going on a waiting list teams are encouraged to pay for as many games as possible when they enter.

WHAT HAPPENS IF YOUR TEAM CAN’T PLAY?
DEFAULTS
At least 24 hours notice is required when your team wants to default. When defaulting you are forfeiting the game you have already paid for. Defaults made within 24 hours of the game are deemed a no show.
NO SHOWS
If your team does not show for your game, you will be charged for an additional game as well as the ‘no show’ game. Two ‘no shows’ will result in your team being removed from the competition. ‘No shows’ are incredibly frustrating for everyone so please be considerate and call Unipol (479-5888) or e-mail unipol@otago.ac.nz as soon as you find out your team can’t play.
CANCELLATIONS
For cancellations please check the Unipol Recreation Centre website (www.unipol.co.nz) or phone (479-5888). Unipol reserves the right to cancel, change or add to the programme at any stage.
