DETAILS FOR COMPETITION 'SET UP'.
COUNTY PERCENTAGE.

The SCBA Percentage qualifying rounds are held in our club on selected Wednesdays between August 2014 and April 2015 - usually the fourth Wednesday, Any club member may enter and scores will be counted from the date the entrance fee is paid. Five best scores out of eight chances to play will be counted to attain an average percentage. 60% of our entries will qualify to play in the final on Sunday 17th May 2015. Any qualifying player may partner any other qualifier from our club or any other in the County. Partnerships do not need to remain the same.

 

Final Print off date - 29th.April 2015.

PAUL JONES

For the Paul Jones Competition, teams should not contain more than two players with an average of more than 52% during the past twelve months from the date the event was previously played. The cut off date is three clear weeks before the competition. This allows players to sort out their team mates without a last minute change being required. If you wish to play and appear in the Non-Qualifiers, this doesn't exclude you, but it means you haven't played three times during the past twelve months - the number required to give a fairly accurate average - then speak to Colin and he will arrange a realistic average for you.

KENNEDY PLATE.

The Kennedy Plate - to be played on Friday 21st November 2014 - is open to any player with an average of below 50% during the past twelve months from the date the event was previously played. The cut off date is three clear weeks before the competition and a list of members averages will be on the board. Because of the intricacies of setting up a competition, I can only produce a list of players with 50% or over, SO, if your name is NOT in the list then you DO QUALIFY, (and the other way round!) This only applies to The Kennedy Plate, all other competition set-ups are straight forward. In order to get a fairly accurate average for a player, we base the calculation on playing a minimum of three times during the period being assessed. If you would like to play and have played less than three times and think your handicap is likely to be below 50%, then do please speak to David.

 

 

 
 
INTERCLUB COMPETITION.

The Interclub Competition is run between Taunton, Exeter, Torquay and Newton Abbott Bridge Clubs. Our competing pairs play on our own allocated clubnight, using the same duplimated boards as the other clubs. Partners may not be substituted, and the minimum number evenings played must be five. The 14 top players from the qualifying rounds, will go forward to a final - to be arranged.

HANDICAP PAIRS AVERAGES.

This table shows any player's handicap for the previous twelve months prior to this year's date for the Handicap Pairs Competition - i.e. Friday 16th October 2015. The 'cut off date' is three weeks prior to the competition. If your name does not appear, it means you haven't played more than three times, which is the number required to give a fair average. If this applies to you, and you wish to take part (welcome), please talk to Colin.

DILWORTH CUP...CLUB PERCENTAGE.
In order to qualify for our Club Percentage 2014 - The Dilworth Cup -  members must play with at least three different partners over the season. Furthermore only three scores with a given partner will be counted. The percentage is gained from the results in our Club Percentage nights, which are designated dates throughout the season from January to September. The best seven scores from fifteen will count. If your name doesn't appear, you are classed as a non-qualifier, and you can check how you're doing by clicking on 'non-qualifyers' at the top right of the tabsIf 'Partner exceeded 3 ignored' appears, you have played with that partner more than three times and your lowest scores with that partner will not be included in the competition.
