A note on our session labels
Whereas in the past we've categorised our sessions with reference to NGS grades, we're now focusing more on the feel of the session.
Relaxed (formerly 9 HIGH and Improvers): the name says it all!
Social A bit more challenging than Relaxed. This is suitable for most of our members.
Open A bit more challenging than Social.
While members are free to attend whatever sessions they find suit them, all members are actively invited to play in our Allcomers Social Pairs at the club.

| Do you know your NGS ranking? |
 |
Most of us know (at least roughly) our rank as determined by the masterpoints we've accumulated. But do you know your NGS ranking?
The National Grading Scheme provides a picture of your current skill level and offers a mine of information about how well you (and your partners) are doing.
As well as being a handy and accurate measure of your progress (especially if you're an up-and-coming 'improver'), the NGS is widely used as the basis for eligibility for games – eg. '9 HIGH' Pairs, '6 HIGH' Swiss Teams, etc – so it's well worth knowing what it's all about.
