There were a couple of queries about walk overs and what to do if you haven’t played someone in your group.
Below are the new guidelines regarding walkovers.
- If a person/pairing contacts opposition to play a Round Robin Match and a date is agreed. If for any reason one of the players / pairings can’t play the match on the agreed day and time and is not played before the last day of the Round Robin Schedule ,then the person or Pairing that cancelled the original fixture will receive a score of 0 and the other person/pairing will receive a score of 8
- In the situation where a game has not being organised between Persons or Pairings and no match is played between persons/parings then each person/pairing will receive a 2 point deduction when the Round Robin closes
Round Robin Leagues
The new Round Robin Leagues will commence on the 1st of January.
The new leagues will now be played over 2-month periods so the first Round Robin of 2023 will finish on the 28th of Feb.
The new leagues and divisions are now available to view on ebookingOnline
Winners of any match will be first person/pairing to win 8 games (it’s no longer a tie-break at 7-7).
The new format in the leagues will see each game in a match won worth 1 point. So, for example if you lose a match 6 games to 8, you will have secured 6 points while the winner(s) has secured 8 points.
You must enter your score via the leagues on E – Booking.
Winner of each division will be based on the most points accumulated over the two months.
At The end of every 2-month period the bottom 2 players/pairings with the least points will be demoted to a lower division, While the top 2 players /pairings will be promoted to a higher division.
Walkovers can only be given in the case of injury or with the approval of the organizer. Any walkover will be a score of 8-0.
We plan to hold an awards night in conjunction with the club closed prize giving for people playing in the round Robins.
Prizes will be awarded for the following:
Most Top Of division standing in each category.
Most top Of Division Category (Men’s doubles/Ladies Doubles/Mixed Doubles/Singles)
This award is for how many times you win a division in a specific Category.
For example, we have presently 3 divisions in the Mixed category so:
You could top Division 3 twice, Division 2 once and Division 1 once throughout the season this means you would have a score of 4 or alternatively you could have a pairing topping division 1 in this category 5 times thorough the season and subsequently this pairing would be deemed the winners of this award. In the event of a tie the player/pairing with the most points accumulated over the season will be deemed the winner.
