| Slow Play |
At the last committee meeting, the committee discussed the question of slow play. They noted the perhaps understandable reluctance of many directors to use the timer and felt it would be appropriate to give them guidance as to how to handle slow play.
The committee believe that, notwithstanding possible disputes as to how such situations have arisen, any table which has not commenced playing its last board when the move is called should forfeit that board.
Please, be aware that the directors have been asked to adhere to this ruling and give them the support and cooperation they need to make sure that the evening is an enjoyable experience for everyone. |
