Dartford 7 Rules

[stongle]

What's the rule on starting gates, PA seems to have caused a LOT of controversy with having to start from behind the gate????

Has this been remedied for the Dartford series?

EDIT: Got the answer, from the front Millenium stylee

I'm guesting this week-end so have not yet been privy to the rule book changes....

Jerseys tucked underneath Packs or in does seem sensible, how would you get at your paint????

Tom

you need to pull the trigger to start your timer on your angel

can any1 clarify what I am allowed to wear on Sunday (dont do it Strongle) as an old bloke I feel the cold more and more these days, so C4 top, elbow pads and a short sleeve T ok, or should I get the scissors out for my playing top?

I've just always played with the back of my jersey (or indeed brownleaf realtree camo top in days of yore ) tucked under my pack and the front hanging loose over my belt.

Just seems a teeny bit anal to specify exactly how we should be dressing - I'd have thought a more general 'at the marshalls discretion' rule to cover obvious attempts at getting bouncers would have been better.

Kitch - you can't wear Elbow Pads AND a C4 top (unless you cut the padding out of the arms) cos that's two layers of padding

 

[stongle]

hmmm I'm with Kitch, can we have a rule for the under 25's and a veterans rule. Could be chilly at the top of the hill.

 

[Kitch]

Do hot water bottles count as padding?

 

[stongle]

Dunno, not read anything in the rules about electric blankets though (tucked in behind my pack of course).

Will there be mains electricity available?, if so can someone lend me a couple of extension leads. Ta.

Why not use millennium rules its all there in black and white is specifically designed for the 7 man game. Besides nearly all the teams will play at least one millennium (campaign) so get used to the standard field sizes 7 minute games and the rest of the rules.

The way i've read the padding rule- it would seem that elbow pads are a no on shirts with fore arm pads as part of their design, but it is still cool to wear a longsleeved t so long as this isn't padded.

Can i have clarification that if i keep my C4 top intact ie with it's faux forearm padding, i won't be allowed to wear arm pads- but i will be able to wear a t.

P.s Stongle i think the rule should be over 24's and under 24's this winter has been particually nippy.
