Dear Club Members
The club committee, on the recommendation of the Match and Grading committee, has made the decision that club members with 15 and more rating points will not be eligible to play in the Wednesday Centennial Cup and Kaitake Plate competitions. However, they can still play on unrestricted nights with those players with less than 15 rating points. In fact, we encourage higher ranked players to play with the “C” grade players on a Wednesday night to foster their development.
