In the interests of good organisation and fair play, we’ve set out some ground rules for our match play tournaments which we strictly adhere to:
When you put your name on the entry sheet please put the entry fee in an envelope and leave it at the bar (or put it through the shop door). If your entry fee is not received your name will not be included in the draw.
All ties in the club match play competition must be played by the stated date – we can’t grant extensions and no excuses are accepted. The first named player or team shall give their opponents three reasonable optional dates.
Unreasonable dates are considered to be:
– Three consecutive dates
– Three dates in the same week
– Midweek or weekend dates only
If the dates are not offered the second-named progresses to the next round.
If the dates are offered but not accepted, the first-named progresses.
Players are jointly responsible for ensuring that a name is put forward to the next round. If no name is put forward at the closing date both players will be eliminated. There will be no exceptions to this rule.
