Booted Players

Current rule reads;

If an individual boots during a match, that game is forfeited. You must notify the opposing captain ASAP.

The player has 7 minutes to return, or the team captain has up to 7 minutes to find a sub for the match to be restarted with the next game. If the player does not return and no sub is selected within 7 minutes, the match is forfeited.

If there is a Zone problem involving many players, a member of the Op team can lift this rule until the Zone problem is resolved.

Any person leaving the table after the play of the first card will be deemed a boot.
