Regular Weekly Programme

  • Our regular weekly schedule is below, but remember that this could be disrupted by a special event - so check here or the club noticeboards: special events will be advertised in both of these places.
  • If you have a partner, then you can just turn up (before 7.30pm please), except on Fridays. Even if you want to play on a Friday, it's worth calling to find out whether any of our house teams are short of a player or two.
  • If you don't have a partner then on Thursdays you can just turn up. On other days, give us some advance warning and we'll do our best to find you a partner (as a last resort, there may well be somebody else who needs a partner if you just turn up before play starts, but we can't make any promises!)
