note the following changes to the C team.

replace Leslie Neville & Ken Clayton.
On 7th January 2009 Leslie Neville & Ken Clayton replace
Judith Taylor & Mary Bradley. Click
here for the full
programme. This will be updated on a
regular basis as captains/players notify me of changes. Please help your captains to plan by
providing details of non-availability as far as advance as possible as it can
be very difficult and time-consuming to try to make last minute
alterations. Also please note the
number of pairs in the pool for selection for the C team. The support of these pairs on club nights
when they are not selected would be greatly appreciated both by the committee
and by those pairs who choose not to play in the teams.
