You will have
noticed on your cards this week a number “team handicap” and a number beside
each player. The is a handicap system based on you pennant grading with
adjustment. This is the brain child of out IT guru Paul Webster. Your handicap
will change each week depending on the result of your game, so please make sure
you hand your card in. The handicaps do not apply at the moment, but Paul is
fine tuning the system ready for when handicap events start after pennant.
