The Merit league will support and encourage teams to play games by creating an environment that is based on the flexibility of laws/rules and dates.
Clubs will be expected to play a minimum of 6 games throughout the season with 2 of those being an away fixture. Teams can play as many more games as they want and the same opposition multiple times using variations of the game, providing both teams are in agreement.
