The Club Competition Rules for Indoor Internal Competitions have been updated and have also been put up on the noticeboards in the changing rooms. They are similar to the Rules for the Outdoor Internal Competitions.
Please note the following:
- Entrants must pay their entry fees before playing their first match. Entry fees are a single charge of £5 per competition entered. Note that there are no additional rink fees per match played. The money (in cash) should be put in an envelope marked with your NAME and 'INTERNAL COMPETITION FEES' and placed in the the Treasurer's box by the desk. If you are unsure how much you owe, please ask Marilyn or myself.
- 'Play by' dates will be adhered to (see below). But please try and arrange to play your matches ASAP, preferably before the deadline date. Owing to the limited number of ladies' entries, there is less urgency to start playing the ladies singles matches.
- The challenger (first person named) should contact their opponent to arrange a suitable date/time for the match. But if the challenger is a novice, their opponent should not hesitate to help facilitate the arrangements. Please remember to check for matches in the fixtures book and also the desk diary.
- For singles matches, the challenger is also responsible for finding a marker (but please contact your opponent - or if necessary us - if you have a problem!). More experienced players should volunteer to act as markers.
- Please enter your match details in the desk diary and let us know of your planned dates so we do not have to chase you.
The proposed 'play by' dates are as follows:
- Round of 32 (only applicable to Men's 4 Wood, 4 games only) - by 28 December
- Round of 16 - by Saturday 18 January 2025
- Quarter finals (round of 8) by Saturday 1 March
- Semi finals by Saturday 29 March
- Finals on 4-5th April.
Some possible dates/times for playing matches in the coming weeks include the following Saturdays - 30/11, 21/12, 28/12, 4/1 (no friendly matches are being played then) - and all Wednesday PMs.
Markers will be required for singles matches - please volunteer.
