VRU Schedule Reporting Procedure

FYI: the current season schedule is posted on the home page.

Beginning with the Fall 2010 season, VRU clubs will report their home game schedules to the VRU using a standard spreadsheet file; the VRU is posting this on-line in a publicly accessible location (i.e., no password required).

Basics:

1. Click here to download the scheduling XLS file (the file has basic instructions inside.)

2. Enter your home schedule only; it is the responsibility of your opponent to report your away match!

3. Email the home schedule to:

vruschedules@rugby.org

by August 1 and February 1.

[Be aware that in the Fall, some of the coordinators arrange and send league schedules in for the clubs. If you don't know if this applies to you, ask them!]

Details:

a. If you are late, the schedules must be submitted to both vruschedules@rugby.org and schedules@rugby.org.

b. IF you need to make a schedule change, please do so in a blank schedule file. ONLY submit the changed matches in the spreadsheet to us, so there is no question of what needs to be changed. Make any necessary comments in "Comments".

c. If you are hosting a round-robin (not a tournament), put your club as the home team, enter "Various" in the Visiting Team column, and explain in the comments.

d. If you are hosting a tournament, put the name of the tournament as the Home Team, enter "Various" in the Visiting Team column, and explain in the comments.

e. Each row of the schedule must be filled out completely for each of your home games. If it is not, the schedule spreadsheet will be returned to you for correction.
