This is for the pair who has the best average over the year.  To qualify a pair must take part in a minimum of one third of the available qualifying evenings to the nearest whole number ie if there are 50,51,52 evenings then the qualifying number will be 17, but if only 47,48,49 it will be 16. The season will  run from 1st December to two weeks before Xmas Party.
Games which involve a break-up of the partnership will not count, nor will singles or Teams of Four.

One night event probably in October.  Each pair is given a % based on the previous year's performance.  Anyone either above or below 50% mark will have their handicap  either added to or deducted from their score on the night.  A Pair must play a minimum of 3 times during the year.

This shield is won by the Player who accumulates the best average score, having played not less than 25 games between 1st December and 30th November, and having played with more than one partner. In the event of a tie, the award will go to the player who has played with the most partners. All other club competitions will be excluded from this averaging.

(Remember if you win the Kay Bore Trophy you cannot win this shield in the same year.)

This will follow the same time scale as for the Kay Bore Trophy, i.e. 1st December to 30th November. It will take the average of each member's score through the period, based on a minimum of 25 games excluding other competitions and Sim. pairs and compare it with their average for the previous year. The member who has the most increase will be the winner.  Discontinued in 2015.  Replaced by Pairs Handicap.

Two separate competitions played on the same night as a one off. Players have their own choice of partner.
Each having their own movement (if possible) to give a single winner.

This is for teams of 4, where members keep partners of their choosing but the other pair are selected by matching highest to lowest ranking. As this event requires a specific number of tables, the holdimg of this competition will be determined by the Director on the occasion s/he deems the table numbers to be appropriate. 

Where the movement is designed so that each player plays with as many other members as time permits and to give one winner.
This is for all members.
