SINGLES & PAIRS

Paul Gafa' is the Knock Out Secretary.
All results should be texted in immediately after the tie by the winning players on 07443 456662.
Walkovers/forfeit results should be texted as won by default, not by the maximum score to nil please.
All player details will be lodged with the KO Secretary for contact purposes.
Entry to the Singles or Pairs is via payment of the entrance fee only to any League Committee member or via bank transfer to the League Account.
Payments via bank transfer on the day of the draw have now been outlawed. If you wish to enter on the day of the draw then payment will only be accepted in cash.

Account details available on request, once paid send text/email to notify the League of payment.

If you believe you have entered a competition and do not see your name listed here then contact the Knock Out Secretary immediately. Entry into the knock out will not be granted once the draw is made irrespective on whether you believe you have entered or not, however a refund will be possible if the League is at fault.

The earlier you register for the Singles or Pairs KO, the more chance you have of receiving a 1st round bye.
Byes, if required, are awarded in consequential order of registration.
