American Tournament - TBC Saturday 6th April 2024 starting at 12pm
We hold an American Tournament, starting at 12md for 2 hours, on the first Saturday of each month. The tournament is entertaining and enjoyed by all standards, very much a social event.
For those not familiar with the format, members are paired, play 8 games a round for 4 rounds with a handicap system, change partners and play against other pairings. At the end of each round individual scores are noted to find a winner for the afternoon. We provide some refreshments afterwards or you can carry on playing. The 4 rounds of play take just under 2 hours.
