The cost is £3.00 per session, including tea / coffee & biscuits, paid monthly in arrears via BACS (like match fees).

Registration sheets will be up in the clubhouse on Finals Day 11th September until Sunday 18th September. You can register to play in up to 3 sessions. Priority will be given to first choices so please number your choices. Other than that it will be on a first-come-first-served basis.
