Parking

Please make use of the space at the side
of the church hall
, on the left hand side
of the car park as you drive in.

If you are one of the early cars to arrive,
please make use of this area, by driving
to the end
. Since only bridge club members
will use it, please double-park in this area,
since we should all be leaving at the same time.

Most importantly, if you are one of the early
cars to arrive, please don't block access
to this extra area of parking
.

Please do not double-park in the main
car park area.

Slow Play
Slow Play

 
Slow play is something that we all try to avoid and as a club we have introduced a clock to help to try an eliminate this.
 
We normally allow for 7 minutes per board and then 90 seconds for the move to the new tables giving the EBU recommended time for each round of 22 1/2 minutes for 3 board rounds.
 
Our clock gives a 2 minute warning notifying the end of the round.. 
 
Any board where the bidding has not started when the clock has given the 2 minute warning should not be played and the director notified accordingly. 
 
The board will be scored as not played unless it is apparent that one pair was solely responsible and this will then be scored 40%/60%.
 
If the move has been called by either the director or the clock, then
 
unless at least one card has been played, the director will not allow that board to be played.
