CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP COMPETITION  2019-20

The Club Championship consists of a Teams and a Pairs event, both events having Open and Restricted Tiers.

A player who represents one club in one of these events may not play for another club in the other event.

 There is no limit on the number of teams and pairs which a club may enter in both Open and Restricted Tiers. 

In the Restricted Tier all players must have an EBU rank less than National Master on 1^stJuly 2019.

Also players who have played in the ‘A’ divisions of the County League or Pairs League for at least two seasons must not  be selected for this tier.

Points are awarded as shown below and the club gaining the most points will be the 2019-20 Club Champions.
