| SBU Women's Weekend, Newtonmore, March 25/26 2017 |
The SBU has changed the format of the Women's Pairs & Teams events this year.
There will be no heats, but a direct entry to both events which will be held on the last weekend of March in Newtonmore.
We hope for a big entry from Highland District ladies to justify this move, and in the hope that it may become a regular fixture in Highland.
Both events are Swiss, with National (Red) Points to be awarded.
