Two books for three divisions
The league publishes its playing rules in two documents — one covering the Over 18 division, one covering Over 45 and Over 60 together — alongside its bylaws and a code of conduct reminder.
Grouping 45 and 60 under one book while giving 18 its own is a judgement about where the real break lies, and it is a different answer from the leagues in this directory that write a book per bracket or one for everybody. Its national MABL and MSBL affiliations supply the framework underneath. High Cheese keeps a league's own rules beside its schedule and against its rosters, so a 61-year-old and a 19-year-old each read the book that governs their Sunday.
