This page explains Honcho's policy on match start times and what your options are if your scheduled time doesn’t work.

📆 Scheduling Basics

• Match start times are assigned using the LeagueApps random scheduler.
• While some teams may receive similar times more often, the system is designed to be fair across the season. Depending on the league / season, you may end up facing the same team twice or not at all.
• Honcho does not accommodate pre-season, regular season, and playoff-requested start times.

🔄 Rescheduling a Match

• You can reschedule a match if both teams agree to a new time.
• The new time must fall within the same week as the original match (unless otherwise approved).
• Any court fees incurred as part of the reschedule are the responsibility of the players — not Honcho.

⚠️ What Happens If You Can’t Agree

• If you attempt to reschedule but your opponent does not agree to the new proposed time(s), the original schedule stands.
• If your team cannot play at the originally scheduled time and no agreement is reached, it will be considered a forfeit, and your opponent will be awarded the win.

🙋‍♂️ Need a Sub?

If you can't make your match, you can find a substitute to play in your place. Be sure they match your league’s skill level.
