SCORECARD PROBLEMS
10 November 2026Hello all Captains ….. There are a few scorecards each week that leave a bit to be desired, the maths on them is sometimes very bad, as an example two weeks ago a team sent in a card that had TEN of the players scores incorrect & TWO leg scores also incorrect, this was an extreme example but you get the point. Also, some of the cards are, to put it bluntly a mess, please try and keep them tidy.
THE TIME TO DO THE MATHS AND MAKE SURE THE SCORES ARE CORRECT IS WHILE THE GAME IS GOING ON AND AT THE END BEFORE YOU SIGN THE CARD, the signature is the indication that both teams are happy with what is written down. To that end, in future when the card arrives with the Assistant Sec that is what will be locked in, if there are mistakes at that point, maybe ones where a lost game should be a win or a draw there will be no point complaining as WHAT IS ON THE CARD IS WHAT WILL GO ON THE WEBSITE, WIN, DRAW OR LOSE. So please check the MATHS before signing. Please see RULE 17 which applies to scorecards and a possible fine. The tidiness of the card is important for several reasons, being able to read it of course, but as a new feature an in depth write up of the night is being presented each week on the Website & our Facebook page and this relies heavily on the cards being legible and correct. Thankyou for your support in this.
