To determine the Handicap for each game:

1. Subtract the lower group number from the higher group number and note the difference

2. Refer to the columns far right to find the starting points for each leg of that match

Example

PLAYER A (Div 3.....50% last year) = Group 24

versus

PLAYER B (Premier....66% last year) = Group 7

Group Difference is 17

Therefore each leg will start

Player A 20 Player B 1

(Note: Some adjustments may have to be made in respect of players who have moved up to a higher division, new registrations and other anomalies)

NOTE:

Format change for 2007/2008 season.

Nine singles games, each game consisting of 2 legs, 31 up, the winners of the match will be the team that wins most points scored. These changes (agreed at the AGM) have been made to encourage playing of all 9 games
