Dear All
May I take this
opportunity to welcome your team to the East Lancashire Table Tennis
League for the 2008-9 season. In this seasons booklet you should
find all the information needed to compete in, and thoroughly
enjoy this coming season. This season we hope to boost our
league numbers from 37 to 40 to give us four divisions of ten.
PLEASE
NOTE THAT TEAMS PLAYING AT THE TT CENTRE WILL NEED TO COMMENCE
MATCHES BY 7.15pm AS THE SPORTS CENTRE WILL BE CLOSED EARLY.
Changes to the
handicaps will again be made using the ranking system, and an
updated set of handicaps will be released before the first
preliminary round of the Fred Holden Cup takes place. If your
team are intending playing someone without a handicap in the
first preliminary round, they MUST first have played at
least one league match this season. Please note that the
handicap matches are still played up to 21, and the maximum
start, as last season, is 18.
Every effort
should be made to return all score cards to me during the week
the matches are played, this gives me the chance to update the
league and merit tables and pass them to John Leech, who updates
the web site and to Ged Simpson, who writes a report and sends
copies to the Accrington Observer, Lancashire Evening Telegraph,
Rossendale Free Press, Burnley Express, Nelson Leader, Colne
Times and the Clitheroe Advertiser, Teams that play from the
Hyndburn Regional Table Tennis Centre can leave their cards in
the box below the wall safe, please don’t put them in
the safe.
The Merit
tables will work as last season a victory of 3v2 will count as
60% for the victor and 40% for the loser, 3v1 would be 75% for
the victor and 25% to the loser, 3v0 will still count as 100% to
the victor and 0% to the loser.
May I take
this opportunity to introduce you to our committee:
