Our website gets a revamp...and other news

Clubhouse Chat - the place where we publish team sheets, amongst other things - is being discontinued by our software providers (WiX).

From 15th October, you will no longer be able to post items or comments there. I will be working on its replacement, still Clubhouse Chat, but in a different format. As soon as it is complete, I will publish a guide to using it.

Also, I will ask a few of you to give it a go - just to make sure it works before the new season starts!

Shall we go on tour in 2026?

Mike Dolling is happy to organise a tour (or 2) for next year, if members want to go.

Portugal

This would be in October 2026, and similar in format to the last couple of european tours - a week away in an all-inclusive hotel, and 3 matches with local clubs. The choices are below (click the picture to see a bigger version):
