Parents are asked to sit on the perimeter of the room during tournament play.
If the players have an issue I would ask them to put up their hand so we can deal with the issue right away. If you wait until the end of the game it will be too late to deal with and the game may not count for either player.
If I have to ask your child to behave they maybe asked not to come back for the rest of that tournament…
Important notice:
The junior players will need to be picked up no later then 7:10 pm.
If you can’t pick your child up by this time please let myself, Harry, know that you may be late.
The senior club will start at 7:15pm.
If your child would like to play in the senior club they may join.
