*******14-SEPT-23*******

Dear Skittlers

We're now back up to 20 teams for the forthcoming season. Bowling Stones (from the Coach & Horses, Harvington) are joining the league which starts in w/c 18-September-23 with league matches.

A reminder about Cup Games that all teams agreed to at the AGM:

For the coming season the Cup Secretaries want an image of the whole match board from the winners who progress to the next round. This is especially important for the Pairs as in subsequent rounds images will be checked against results already received and if a discrepancy is found teams will be disqualified.
In addition the Cup Secretaries want the 5^th placed player on each venue at the 1^st round of the Gents singles to be identified. This player is to step in if one of the 4 highest players is unable to make finals night.

Important Note: As we all know coronavirus has not gone away. We all want for our game to be played minimising the risk of catching anything, but the use of hand sanitizer, wearing of gloves and face masks will be the decision of each individual player. (Don’t forget your sticker-up either.) Each individual will have to rely on their own common sense. Venues may stipulate the use of such items and again, it will be up to each individual to either accept their limitations or not.

For this season:

· The time restraints of Rule 21 (a) and (b) are removed. We expect all teams to notify in good time both the opposition and the venue that a game will not take place on the specified date.

· In an effort to combat food waste and save money it is the recommendation of the committee that food should not be provided at the end of games. Any team choosing to provide food should do so at their own cost and not expect the opposition to help fund it. In addition if a team chooses to provide food they should not expect the opposition to do so too.

We hope you have an enjoyable season.

Kind regards,

Mary

EDSL League Secretary and on behalf of your Committee
