    Mixed Autumn league - good to go

    Update: We're good to go now. If you still have an issue with a fixture then we'll take a look at it specifically but there won't be any more mass date changes. Please go ahead and book your courts (Admin->Court usage if you have access otherwise use Fixtures->Mixed Autumn) and get ready to play some league squash!

    ....................................................................

    A little more rearranging and we have a full set of fixtures now. This might be it! Note that fixture dates are probably quite differet from what they were a few hours ago...

    Any problems please get back to me asap.

    ....................................................................

    I've arranged the teams into divisions using the new-look structure taking into account how it all finished up at the end of the spring league, the changes to the teams that I've been told about and, in some cases, a little adjustment based on level if I had to go one way or another.

    As far as I can see, it looks like we'll get some good, close matches this season so, hopefully, these changes will be an improvement.

    I had one quick go at the fixtures and we're still struggling so I may have to start earlier and finish later. Please let me know if you *can't* start on Weds, 30th September and/or can't finish on Thurs, 17th December.

    Please ignore the dates on the system for now! They will change. But if you feel you're in the wrong division please let me know asap (and why) and I'll take a look.

    Note we have a few less teams this time around, including the demise of Burham on Sea so au-revoir to them for now.

    Update: League fees are posted on the site at About->Fees by club (2015). Please send payments to Olly Morrall as usual. Link to page: http://badsquash.co.uk/docs/Squash%20fees%202015.pdf.

    It's that time again... we need to be thinking about the arrangements for the Mixed Autumn league...

    Can each club please reply with the number of teams you plan to include this time around and also confirm that you're sorted or making preparations with ESR that your club/leisure centre is affiliated.

    The league will run from the 7th October through to something like the 10th December. Exact dates will depend on how hard it is to get the fixtures sorted out... Please let me know if you have specific dates you can't make such as term times, BUCS matches (by team), half term, week nights you can't play home games etc. I have all the 'rules' from last time but it's really helpful to have it confirmed/updated each seaon.

    Also, please let me know if your court arrangements have changed. Some clubs are sharing courts and that does change from time to time.

    I've heard a couple of times that Steve Jones from ESR is a bit slow to respond but please bear with him as it's just him looking after all membership queries for the whole county and it's a busy time for him. If you don't hear back after a week them feel free to let me know and I'll follow up with him. He knows that we're asking for all clubs to be affilliated this season and is obviously supportive!

    Remember that we're going back to a straight, non-parallel set of divisions this season and I'll take account of where you all ended up at the end of last season to get the teams in the right place. Top teams of each division will go up two divisions to compensate.

    We also can't work with 'parallel teams' (actually we haven't been able to do that for a couple of years!) so please get in touch if this is going to cause problems for you.

    Thanks,
