The Ladies Tuesday Group welcomed Frank Tanner to the club yesterday. Frank’s talk was called ‘The Bees Knees’ and told the story of an American dancer called Beatrice, who in the roaring 20s choreographed the dance we now know as the Charleston. She came over to the UK (London) and introduced the British to this new dance. He gave another small talk on Summer and how the weather/seasons have changed since he was young. The ladies thoroughly enjoyed Frank’s talk. Next week it’s Catch Up. Elaine will be selling her jewellery so you might be able to buy the perfect Xmas gift! Hope to see you next Tuesday.

Prestwick Bickerton Mixed Fours 2024 – Format & Rules

1. There will be 4 sections, each with 4 teams.
2. Each team will play 3 games of 6 ends. Burnt ends will count.
3. Only skips should visit the head during their shot turn, this is to keep the games running over time.
4. Scorecards should be handed in after each game. Please ensure that the score on the card is correct, before handing back to the organisers for checking.
5. Where a measure is required, teams are requested to do this themselves. In the case of any dispute or disagreement, one of the match secretaries/organisers will measure or make a final decision on the situation
6. Qualification will be on a round robin basis. Two points will be awarded for a win and one for a draw.
7. Section winners will be determined as follows:
• The team with the most points
• In the event of two or more teams having equal points, the team with the best shot difference will qualify
• If two teams are tied on points and on shot difference, the winner will be determined by the direct result between these two teams
• If more than two teams have the same number of points and are also tied on shot difference, then the team who won the highest number of ends will be the winner
The winners of each section will qualify for the semifinals. A draw will take place to determine the semi-final games, which will be played over 6 ends.
The final will be played over 8 ends.
