Worthing C will be there, also understand on the 2nd week club need to use the room Saturday evening so tables will have to be moved and set up again on Sunday.
SEEMS LIKE TIME TO SEE IF ANOTHER SUITABLE VENUE CAN BE FOUND!!!!!!!!!

Please note that the dates for the Ladies and Division 1 Competitions have been moved forward two weeks after problems with the Roffey Club also booking a Darts Competition..... yes, they did it again to us!! :o >:( Please would teams therefore confirm if they are available ASAP.... Division 1 - now to be played on Sunday 17th February (NEW DATE) Brighton Worthing Redhill Tunbridge Wells Littlehampton Mid-Sussex Please could teams confirm if they are available ASAP.... many thanks. ;) These teams should be made aware of a clash with Series 7 of the Home/Away competition.....Horsham v Littlehampton for instance, unless they want an evening rather than an afternoon start. ;)

The sensible thing to do would be to rearrange these for 3rd March the date that was cancelled

Mid Sussex ladies should be there, but the change of date means that we have almost certainly lost one of the strongest members of our team :(
I agree with many of the other posters - the Roffey club might be a good venue, but they have shown a complete lack of any respect to us. Even if we could rely on this not happening again (which we can't) I think we should move elsewhere on principal, they don't deserve our business. >:(

Think we should tread a bit careful here with comments. Yes it is very annoying what has happened again but we still need to use this venue this year and for the masters and sussex open in June. Trying to find another venue that can take 12 tables have ample parking a kitchen for food and mostly sole use of the room will not be easy.

Tunbridge Wells will be available (probably be in div 2 next year as 3 or 4 of our best players may not be available). Not very good to have a change of date this close to the competitio.

Mid Sussex ladies should be there, but the change of date means that we have almost certainly lost one of the strongest members of our team :( I have every sympathy for the above comments and the situation is even more relevant for Horsham Ladies, where there is the sad situation of neither of the two very keen new stars (Sam Short and Vicky Timson) being able to make the revised date in mid-February. Vicky will be on a skiing trip. Which rather defeats the object of Horsham putting a team back in, after an absence of many years. ::)

Please note that there is a good chance that the dates for the Ladies Competition and Division 1 will now be returning to the original dates of 2nd and 3rd March.... and the venue for ALL of the One Day Competitions will also be changing.
We are currently awaiting confirmation of this and a formal announcement will be made as soon as we receive this, which I would expect to be able to make at some time tomorrow. ;D
Please would all teams therefore watch this thread for further information. ;)

As this is now very important as it affects all Leagues in Sussex, could one of our moderating team kindly turn this into an "Announcement" ?

There is nothing "official" to announce yet Tommo..... ;D Just drawing attention to the fact that there is a special "Important Announcements Board" facility for when the time comes. You don't want your official announcement, when it's made, lost amongst the reams of quiz answers and football discussions ! Moderators could 'sticky' your thread for you - or put a red banner up if you were to ask. ;)

Would all teams please note the change of venue for the competitions this year and also the revised dates (back to what was originally scheduled) for The Ladies and Division 1 Competitions as shown now at the top of this thread.
Please would teams confirm if they are available to play ASAP?
Many thanks. :D

These teams should be made aware of a clash with Series 7 of the Home/Away competition.....Horsham v Littlehampton for instance, unless they want an evening rather than an afternoon start. ;) The change of date also now avoids the clash of dates with Series 7 of the Home & Away Inter League Competition. 8-)

Mid Sussex will be there - possibly on our own or with a combined MS and Lewes team.
Edit: Sorry, I should have said this was the Mid Sussex Ladies team.

If you read this thread through carefully you will see that although this thread was started on 17th Jan it was for the change of dates for ladies and Div 1 to be held at Roffey. On 22nd Jan I realised we were going to have trouble with teams dropping out so spoke to the committee and decided to try and find an alternative venue.this was then confirmed on 24th. Whoever took it upon themselves to tell the Roffey that we had changed the venue nearly 2 weeks ago and had not bothered to let them know, I hope will now tell them that they were wrong. Please leave things to the committee as its not nice making a phone call and people think you are not telling the truth!!

On 22nd Jan I realised we were going to have trouble with teams dropping out so spoke to the committee and decided to try and find an alternative venue.this was then confirmed on 24th. I can certainly confirm that there was no mention of a change of venue until Tuesday 22nd January and that situation only arose as several teams were doubtful that they would be able to attend due to the change of dates that had been enforced on us by the Roffey Club.... ::) On Wednesday 23rd January I visited the Hurst Club and enquired as to whether it would be possible to play the competitions there on the original dates and advised Jean that the Club was available, the SCBBA Committee then asked me to confirm with the Hurst Club on Thursday 24th January, which I did. ;) Although it is a shame that we have had to move the event away from the Roffey Club, I would like to thank the Hurst Club for offering us an excellent alternative venue at short notice to enable the event to go ahead on the original dates (that had been booked in June 2012 with Roffey Club).... and without the need to move all of the tables on the weekend that wasn't changed as the Roffey had also booked another event then as well on the Saturday night!! :o :-X
