No points are awarded to any team member who does not show up for his match; however, the league may allow player substitution and eligibility to win a match or a team point under the following rules:
1. There is a list updated weekly in which all substitute players are ranked.
2. Only ranked substitute players are allowed to compete for points
3. The rank of a substitute is based on credits. A credit is earned each night the substitute shows up. The highest rank goes to the substitute with the most credits.
4. Substitutes must be ready to go at 3:55 every Tuesday. Five minutes before a team's tee time, a team can request a substitute from a league official. A league official will assign the highest ranked substitute available to the requesting team.
5. A Substitute plays for the missing player A or B. In case of a double substitute need, one for each team, a coin flip will be used to determine team assignments.
6. Substitutes can only play for the team point.
7. Permanent members are most often selected from the substitute list.
