Message from Peter Smith regarding Kings Church venue on 20/02/10

It is requested that all 1st and 2nd Division teams arrive at Kings Church by 7.00pm and matches commence at 7.15pm. It is also requested that every effort is made to play on 2 tables when available so that the matches can be completed before 10.00pm so that the premises can be vacated at 10.00pm. The reasons for these changes are that juniors are played in all Kings Church teams and they require transportation. For insurance purposes the venue has to be supervised, checked and locked up by designated members of the Church. These key holders are not prepared to lock up after 10.00pm because they normally have venue / player issues to sort out afterwards and they have a early start for work the next day.
