OK, so I'm watching the news about two teams ahead of us in league playing each other. According to the sportscaster, there was a bench-clearing brawl resulting in a double-forfiet. This results in a tie and both teams will have to play thier next game with, basically, their JV teams due to team ejections.
Questions - should such a "double-forfiet" result in a tie or a loss for each? This was a league game and each of these teams will play their next games in a Holiday tourney. Will the players have to sit out the next game (non-league tourney) or the next league game?

Thanks, that makes sense. I figured that was the answer but was hoping it wasn’t...

A team we are battling with for a playoff spot (we beat them twice) may now be able to leapfrog us because they are the next league opponent for both forfieting teams - which means they will play two JV teams instead of the two top teams in the league. Ouch.
I know we control our own destiny but a more level playing field would be nice.
