*** NYDL STATEMENT ON COVID-19 (Coronavirus) ***
*** NYDL Spring 2020 Season Cancelled ***
As has become obvious, New York City bars and restaurants will not fully open for some weeks, if not a month or more, and will likely have occupancy restrictions when they do reopen. Which makes it impossible for us to try to play even a partial Spring season.
We hope everyone is still keeping safe and healthy and managing to play or practice as you can. We'll keep our hopes up for playing in the Fall, and we'll be back with news for Fall 2020 registration in a month or so.

NYDL Spring 2020 Season Suspended
As we've all watched the coronavirus spread accelerate, cases of COVID-19 rise in New York City and the region, and now that the city has ordered all bars and restaurants closed, continuing the dart season has become untenable.
Therefore, we are suspending the NYDL Spring 2020 season until further notice.
League management is planning possibilities of resuming the season once it becomes possible, which could still result in a full or a shortened season, depending on how the situation unfolds.
We will be back with further notices as the pandemic situation develops and clarifies. In the meantime, and more importantly, stay safe, healthy, support each other, keep practicing as you can.
Upcoming Events
Spring 2020 season starts Monday March 9th, Tuesday March 10th
March 06, 2020
The NYDL will be sending up to 30 NYDL players to the PDC US Darts Masters at the Hulu Theater at Madison Square Garden on Saturday, June 6th!
15 Tickets each to the Day event (1:00 PM) & 15 tickets to the Finals event (7:30 PM) will be given to out to the selected winners.
Submissions will be accepted until 11:59 PM Thursday night, March 26th. Winners will be randomly selected and announced on Friday March 27th.
Max 1 entry per person, per event. Must be a registered NYDL player on an active team roster to qualify.
Hope to see you there & Good Luck!!!!

Weather Advisory - Monday Night Matches 12/2
The NYDL is NOT cancelling matches tonight, but will leave decisions whether to play to individual team captains.
As we're nearing the end of the regular season, there is little time to coordinate make-up matches, so, if possible and safe to do so, we encourage matches to be played tonight. We are aware that some players commute by car and may have concerns about travel. If teams need a postponement, the league will allow late requests sent to the opposing captain and CC'd to the league. According to the rules, postponements in Week 12 must be made up by next week, but we will relax that rule to allow some flexibility.

They are looking for interviews with players of all levels and backgrounds about their darting experience--in or out of the league. So even if you aren't participating in the tournament, any and all players should feel free to come by Flannery's on Saturday.

Mid Season Reminders
Now that we're entering the second half of the season, some reminders:
* New players can be added up through Week 10. After November 20th for Monday teams and November 21st for Tuesday teams, no new players may be added to rosters. Players who have played in a minimum of 5 matches for your team before being dropped, may be re-added up to Week 12 (before December 4th for Monday teams and December 5th for Tuesday teams), providing that 4 play weeks have passed since they were dropped.
* Players need to have participated in at least 5 matches to qualify for playoffs. For sub-divisions with bye weeks, 1 bye week may be counted toward the 5 match minimum.
* Postponements are constricted in the later weeks of the season. As we move toward the holiday season, arranging make-up matches may be more difficult and there are no more "free" league dates. Up to Week 12, postponements need to be made up within two weeks. Postponements after Week 13 must be made up within 2 days. Postponements are not allowed in Week 14.
There are some great races for sub-division champions as well as playoff contention this season. Good luck and good darts to all!
Thanks.

Tuesday Snowmageddonocalypse Alert
While the league is not officially cancelling Tuesday's matches and teams/players who can play should do so, captains should still make their own determination of whether their teams can reasonably play tomorrow night. Requests for postponements should be universally honored and the league is suspending the 10 AM notification rule in these circumstances. However, all postponement requests and communications should be copied or sent to the league email. We'll do everything we can to assist in scheduling make-ups. April 10th and 11th are both "off" days for Passover, and so are available for make-up for non-observing players.

Captains Meeting
Come out to Flannery's for the NYDL Captains meeting. Any player may attend the meeting. Meeting at 730pm at Flannery's Bar.
Captain’s Meeting Agenda
1. Changes to rules regarding full-match forfeits (team forfeits) in A division.
Currently the rule applying to full-match forfeits in A division is rule E(6)d.
[d) If an A division team forfeits one match, it will be forfeited out and removed from play immediately. It will not be eligible for the subdivision awards or the playoffs.
History: This rule was voted in by an NYDO captains meeting in the late 00s. The rationale was to prevent a lower ranked team in the standings from potentially playing “spoiler” by manipulating the standings by strategically forfeiting a match to deny a superior team more points. Up to that point, full-match forfeits in A division were very rare.
Proposal: That this paragraph be eliminated and the rules on full-match forfeits as currently applied to B and C divisions be made universal and apply to A division as well. If adopted, rule E(6) a-d would be replaced by the following:
a) If a team forfeits one full match during weeks 1 through 10, it can continue the season. It will be eligible for the subdivision team awards, but will not be eligible for the playoffs.
b) If a team forfeits one full match during weeks 11, 12, 13, or 14, it will be forfeited out and removed from play immediately. It will not be eligible for the subdivision awards or the playoffs.
c) If a team forfeits two full matches in the season, it will be forfeited out and removed from play immediately. It will not be eligible for the subdivision awards or the playoffs.
2. Changes to rule G(5)c regarding home or away starts in playoff matches.
Proposal: That in divisions consisting of a single sub-division, the option to switch regular order of play such that the home team starts singles 501, cricket, and doubles 501 be eliminated.
Currently this rule reads:
c) If a division has only one subdivision, the second place team will also be a home team - provided this does not interfere with 1st place team’s home field advantage. In this case the playoffs will be seeded. The semifinal match will be the first place team vs. the fourth place team and the second place team vs. the third place team. Both semi-finals and finals will be home-and-home matches, with each team having the opportunity to play at home, with the semi-final and final round being won by the first team to score 1 more than the total available single-match points (i.e., first to 25 in A, first to 19 in B, and first to 17 in C). Even though the subdivision champion is usually the home team, the champion and the runner up (who may not be the home team) will have the option to "start" the match (meaning the Home and Away indicators on the score sheet would be reversed if the 1st or 2nd place team is the home team) or follow the standard order on the score sheet (Away team starts). If the home team chooses to start the match, the captain must change the indicators on the score sheet for all games.
Discussion: This rule is rather convoluted and difficult to follow. Each playoff season the league answers more questions about this rule than any other. In practice, about half of the teams affected actually use the rule, which is why it was made optional rather than mandatory. Since playoff matches in these divisions are home-and-home anyway, each team gets the chance to start a match. The sub-division champions and runners-up already have the option of choosing where to start the match (home or away) and this additional rule provides no real advantage while sowing confusion.
