CRITERIA TO DETERMINE THE STATUS OF TF INVITATION TEAMS
The Club may arrange, from time to time, TF Invitational teams to play against the First Team, Second Team or Old Boys Team for the purpose of the Founders' Shield, Jack Kyte Challenge Cup or friendly matches. The status of such teams will be determined by name only for the purpose of Club records, as follows.
TF Founders' XI a team sanctioned by the Club's Founders, or arranged on behalf of the Founders, that contains a higher percentage of TF players (a minimum of 6 out of 11 players, or 7 out of 12 or 13 players, or 8 out of 14 or 15 players). If an intended TF Founders' XI contains fewer TF players than above, it will be classified as a TF Select XI.
TF Select XI a team not sanctioned by the Club's Founders that contains a higher percentage of TF players (a minimum of 6 out of 11 players, or 7 out of 12 or 13 players, or 8 out of 14 or 15 players)
TF Guest XI a team not sanctioned by the Club's Founders that contains a lower percentage of TF players (a maximum of 5 out of 11 players, or 6 out of 12 or 13 players, or 7 out of 14 or 15 players)
Appearances and goals scored whilst representing a TF Invitational team will not be recorded in the Club records. |
