The Rules Working Group met again on Sunday 7 November at 11am. By the time the discussion finished at 3pm, the rules were finalised in draft form.
Sections discussed were:
- Bowling
- Batsman’s Innings
- Method of Scoring
- The Over
- Dead Ball
- No Ball
- Wide Ball
- Bye
- The Batsman is Out
- Wicket Keeper
- Substitute

We are planning a third meeting on Sunday 28 November at 11am. This has been called to discuss the ancillary documents:
- Hints for Umpires
- Umpires’ Signals
- Notes for Scorers
Some statements in these documents need to be incorporated within the rules, some are already covered by the rules and can be dropped and others will be retained.
The findings of the Rules Working Group will be fully discussed at the Annual General Meeting of the National Stoolball Association on Monday 29 November, starting at 8pm at Cowfold Sports Pavilion, Cowfold, West Sussex.
