| RULES Play
starts at 9-30 and each game is time limited to
two hours, is 14 point handicap doubles to no base, so only one side
has
bisques. Calculate bisques by adding up each pair’s handicaps, dividing
by 2,
then subtracting the lower side from the higher giving the full game
number of
bisques then, consulting the appendix on the main board, reduce these
to 14
point handicaps. N.B. NOT WEDNESDAY “HOW MANY BISQUES DO I
GET, LORNA”. Round up ¾
to 1 and ¼ to ½. PAIRS
MUST PLAY IN HANDICAP ORDER i.e.
the pair with the lowest combined handicap must play as no.1. Pairs
must remain the same throughout the day. As
time is of the essence, please minimise conferring
and coaching ON THE LAWN. EXPEDITION
IN PLAY please. Scoring
is the same as a normal Wednesday, winning
side score 20 + winning margin, losers their actual score. |
