Small Hall (Club Room):
we make way for bowls on 9th February, 2nd March, 9th March.

Please sign up on the rota to open and close for 2-3 weeks!

♥  ♠ FOULED BOARDS! ♠ ♥ 

Please take care to put cards back in the correct position on the board.  ESPECIALLY if you take out cards when sit-out.

When there is a relay, NORTH at the table that PUTS on the relay chair/table
places boards at the bottom of the pile.
North at the table that COLLECTS from the relay
​​​​​​​takes from the top and ensures board is facing correct direction!

ALWAYS check on Bridgemate you have correct boards and people, that the boards face correct way before taking out cards, then count cards face down.

Any mistakes - no problem, we are all human, but call the director and/or scorer to come and put things right.  The Scorer can sort switched boards or fouled boards.  The director can sort missing cards etc...
