Club Competitions
Initial Draws of club competitions can usually be found at the links below (or from the drop down menu above) and will be made in early April. Entries should be in by 1st April for all exception the fledging cup. Links to the competitions will be available below some time after the draws have been made.
Please check the clubhouse for up to date details and results. Results may not be added/up to date here.
Please do your best to play the matches by the due dates indicated.
In all competitions the first* named player (or pair) is responsible for contacting their opponents in good time and offering dates to play the match.
* Note due to a quirk in the entry system, the order of players on the draws in some competitions on the following pages are reversed from the actual draw, so it is the second named players on these pages, but first named players on the lists at the club. See notes on individual pages.
If contact hasn't been made 2 weeks before the closing date, the second named player (or pair) should remind the first of their duty.
If a date is still not agreed, then the first named player (or pair) will lose the game by default.
