If you cant cobble together 24 men and 12 women for the games over 2 days you should be forfeiting games imo.
Perhaps some players are not comfortable with playing County games.
That doesnt change my opinion. If a football team cant field a team it has to forfeit a game.
Should be similar here. If you can only field 12 men for the A team and 9 for the B team the other team should get 3 wins by default (assuming they arent also short handed).
