At the meeting, much discussion
took place over the rules of the NWF Leagues:
1. It was decided
that clubs should ensure that players are aware
of their responsibility to keep a current
Handicap Card which should be presented at all
league matches. If a player cannot produce a
current Handicap Card, their captain is
responsible for verifying the handicap claimed
by the player. If the opposing captain wishes to
contest this claimed handicap, they should write
to the League Manager after the match, who will
contact the player's club for confirmation. If
any games have been played off the wrong
handicap, they will be retrospectively conceded
and the match result amended accordingly.
2. Bowdon's proposal
to have bonus points removed from the A-League
caused a stir and clubs want time to think about
their decision; a postal/email vote will be made
in a few weeks.
Liz Wilson retired as Federation Chairman and is
replaced by Garry Wilson of Pendle; Peter Wilson
retired as Federation Auditor and is replaced by
Chris Slater of Chester.
The meeting finished at 12.00pm.
