Hands:
EcatsBridge will provide 33 hands for each match by email. Please click here to check your contact address
and advise any changes to Anna Gudge - click here to email - by the end of August.
Minimum number of tables and boards
The minimum number of table at any heat is four (4), and minimum number of competition boards to be played by each competitor is 20. Please adopt a movement which enables every competitor to play at least 20 boards excluding sit-out rounds.
Registration of participants
As PABF SP is a series game of 6 matches accumulating the results of all matches a player has participated, it is essential to distinguish a player from other players. If a participant registers different names every time, then this player's results will not be accumulated. Therefore when uploading the results, it is most important that you register exactly the same name (spelling and everything!) every time. If your association has membership number, then it is recommended to register membership numbers along with names. PABF and Ecats will not be responsible for the cumulative score of any players who have registered under different spellings.
Reporting (uploading) the results
The results must be uploaded to the Ecats site preferably by 6:00 PM of the following Monday (this will give you at least 24 hours for uploading). The results and correction will be accepted up until 20th of each Month (GMT). After this dates, the results and ranking are established and no change will be accepted. Ecats will advise you the web address when emailing the hands for the October match together with other instructions.
