Nine in the morning to seven at night
A typical week runs a Friday afternoon 40-division game at Gagne, three Saturday games at nine, noon and three across Lischio and Rhode Island College covering all three divisions, a Sunday evening 50-division game at Cranston Stadium, and weeknight fixtures at seven at Pierce, McCarthy and Chew Park.
Nine o'clock Saturday for the fifty-year-olds and seven on a Tuesday for the twenty-eights is a schedule built around who has to be somewhere else.
Fixtures carry the ground, the division and the score once played, all in one view.
A High Cheese schedule puts each game and its ground into every player's phone and moves it in place when a field goes down, which across twenty-nine venues and three divisions is a lot of telephone calls saved.
