The rules below attempt to clarify, for the benefit of all members the competition rules the Match & Handicap (M&H) committee will apply to all internal competitions.
The rules contained may be supplemented by additional rules, which may be implemented from time to time, or special instructions imposed, these will normally be communicated via notice boards or via local rules notifications etc.
The following rules may be altered as necessary from time to time by the M&H without further additional notice. It is therefore the responsibility of all members to make themselves fully familiar with these rules and any other instructions, which may be posted on the notice boards prior to playing in competitions.
In general competition rules should not change during the course of a playing season. But it is likely that after review by the M&H "between season" the rules will be changed when it is considered necessary. Therefore please make yourself familiar with the rules at the beginning of each playing season.
