Substitutes
Teams are not permitted to use a substitute at any point in a match. A substitute is defined as someone who is not listed on the Match Fixture page.

Player IDs are stored when you enter a tournament, meaning that any changes made to a player's ID after they sign up for a tournament will not be updated on the roster. To avoid this change your username before signing up for a tournament or leave the tournament, change your game ID so that it is correct and then rejoin the tournament.
Player Eligibility
Only players listed on the Match Fixture page are eligible to play in tournament matches. It is both team's responsibility to verify the eligibility of all players playing in the match. If a team uses an ineligible player in a match they will forfeit the match the ineligible player participated in. Proof must be shown to support any claims of an ineligible player playing in a match.
If the opposing team has an ineligible player present, you must tell the opposing team to replace that player with an eligible player. You must have given the team the required fifteen (15) minutes from match start time to substitute their ineligible player(s).

If the lobby disconnects during the initial start of a map (which is the time prior to any player’s being killed, rounds have been scored, rings being captured, ring points being scored or a power weapon being picked up), both teams should restart the match as normal and continue to play once all players have returned to the lobby and the settings have been checked.
If the lobby disconnects at any point after the initial start of a round (which is any time after players have been killed, rings have been captured, ring points have been scored or a power weapon has been picked up), both teams are to carry out the following:
Control: Restart the map and replicate the ring points scored by each team prior to the disconnection.
Escalation: Restart the map and replicate the rounds won by each team and any weapon placements prior to the disconnection.
Once both teams agree that the following has been done correctly and once both teams are happy to proceed, both teams should agree upon an in-game time to start via Xbox Live Message or in-game chat and continue to play as normal from that point.
