| I don't do fines for my team as I think they're counter-productive!! People play differently when fines are in place and it adds more pressure for them.
I've seen other teams and how it affects them and would never play for a team that uses them. |

| You may well be right but in our case anyway it doesnt seem to have any effect on scoring and pays for a few beers for the team at the end of the season  |

| We do £2 subs each week for that. I played for a team last Season that started fines this Season and one of the guys just throws for 11's and 14's now so he can avoid a fine every throw!!
I don't see the point in playing if you're not going to throw for the T20 every shot. |

| We don't do fines either - I can't see the point really because as chrisbamb says, people would just start throwing down the side of the board instead of for the 20's or 19's. |

| Now this is news to me as I have never been in a team, I never knew they did things like fines for bad play.
It sounds a little unfair to me, it may only be small fines but surely its adding a little bit of extra pressure when going for an out shot? |

| I wouldn't play in a team with fines....because it highlihgts the weakest players and does nothing for confidence. I would advise against it.
Subs sounds better to me, but all the best with your team, whatever you do

| We fine but more as a gag. If you miss the board it's a drink and if you hit single digits, excluding doubling in or going for an out, you buy a round. I have yet to experience it act negatively on anyone's game but I think that is because we loosely enforce it and nobody wants to hit single digits anyway |
