COMPETITION DRAWS FOR DECEMBER AND JANUARY

THE draws for the early rounds of the competitions to be played in December and January were made recently.
As agreed by the committee, dates will be put on the matches again this season, though you can play them in advance of the set date by mutual agreement.
You must re-arrange with your opponent if a date is not suitable (please give at least 48hrs notice and preferably more) and re-schedule it within 7 days, failing agreement you can apply to the match secretary for a further 7 days to play it.
If someone doesn't contact the opposition and then fails to show, they are eliminated obviously.
Matches to be played off the latest handicaps on the scheduled date of the ties (if any are delayed and handicaps change subsequently, the original match handicap will stand).
All players need to ensure they are paid up before playing their opening match. Any outstanding monies to be forwarded ASAP.
Also a reminder that half season match and registration fees are due by December 22nd, which is £55 combined (with £45 to pay in March), as don't forget a progressive points deduction rule has been voted in and is now in effect.
Currently we have received full fees from Belper Strutt Club and Alfreton PM.
