Fixtures
Each round has a window of three days to complete the scheduled fixture and each fixture must be completed by the deadline; 11:59pm on the third day. Deadline dates and times will be displayed for each fixture on SportsTG (fixtures to go live on Thursday, 14 May).
Arranging Your Fixture
For every fixture, both competitors are required to add each other using their respective Xbox Gamertags or PSN, as listed on SportsTG. The two players must then communicate to arrange an exact match time. Players must ensure their console privacy settings are set to public, so their opponent is able to find them when searching for their Gamertag/PSN ID.
The player listed as the ‘home’ team on SportsTG is responsible for setting up the match. Both players are required to check in five minutes before the scheduled match time. At the end of every match, the winning player is required to fill in a Result Submission Form and submit to Basketball Queensland for validation before the fixture deadline.
