Information
Documentation
As with last year, scoresheets and paper will be provided on the day (and no photocopying balls-ups this time!), or if you wish, you can download them from the site and bring them along. Of course, there's nothing stopping you from designing and using your own if you so wish!
SCORESHEET (A5)- the same A5 scoresheets that were used last year
SCORESHEET (A4)- the same as above, only A4 size
RESULT CHECK CARD- a sheet you can print out to keep track of your progress throughout the day. Feel free to fill in "Final Performance" however you see fit!
TEAM RESULT CHECK CARD- the same as above, but for the team competition. It is recommended that at least one player from each team keeps track of all their scores during the day.
RESULT SHEET- The sheet you hand in to me at the end of each round so I can enter the results onto the computer as efficiently as possible.
