ALL PLAYERS PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING COVID-19 REGULATIONS – IT IS IMPORTANT, NO EXCUSES!!

Temporary Covid-19 Regulations 

  • This tournament can only take place if participants adhere to the guidance of the managers.
  • Health – obvious but it needs to be said: don’t come if you are feeling at all unwell. We are not asking players to wear masks but feel free to do so if it makes you feel safer. Club House – can only be used for toilets. No changing, drinks, etc  (This may change as we come out of lockdown)
  • Family and friends – we shall be playing ‘behind closed doors’, so we cannot have any non-players attending. 
  • Whites – Are optional. Most play in civvies.
  • Hygiene – please try to bring your own personal sanitisers, though some will also be provided, and all players are asked to use it before and after each game. Remember to clean your clips, and the arms of any chair you have used, too. As far as possible, move balls with your foot or mallet, rather than by hand. Between games balls will be kept in a bucket of water. 
  • Refereeing – in marginal situations please do not call a referee (every player is his/her own referee). On the occasions you must have a referee to watch a shot the referee must approach no nearer than one metre. This might mean the judgment made is not as accurate as it might be if nearer. We ask your forbearance of such ‘rough justice’. 
  • Tournament management – report results verbally to the manager, instead of writing on the Order of Play chart, as you usually would. Be careful not to crowd around the notice board.
