Club Movements and Arrow Switching
In a Club Tournament with a (single winner) Mitchell movement, we follow the EBU recommendations:
"...In a standard Mitchell movement, the balance between allies and enemies is not quite right - more matchpoints are at stake against those who sit the same way as we do than against the opposing line.
Arrow-switching redresses this balance.
Theoretically it should apply to around 1/8 of the boards, but in practice, we do not fiddle around too much - it is normal to arrow switch once in 7, 8, 9, 10 or 11 rounds and twice in longer movements..."

| System Card - EBU Law 40 |
If you play anything more complicated than the basic Acol system, both players should have an identically completed convention card giving details of the system that they play, along with the meaning of all artificial calls, and their system of leads, signals, and discards. These should be left on the table throughout the bidding and play, so that your opponents can consult them.
