Advice To Club Secretaries

The League Committee is always willing to be of assistance to your club. You are requested to make yourself familiar with the rules, but do not hesitate to seek advice of the committee members if you are in doubt on any point.
Always answer correspondence promptly and make sure written matter of interest to your members is brought to their attention.

Ensure that your playing conditions are of an acceptable standard; e.g. replace faulty light bulbs, arrange spectator seating well clear of the playing area, use a new approved ball at the start of every match (see Equipment & Playing Conditions), check net height and have a net measure available. Your attention is drawn in particular to the rules governing the night the fixture should be played (Rules 7 & 8).

There has been controversy over Rule 8 b. It is the right of the opposing team to decide whether latecomers be allowed to play on arrival - once the player has completed games the issue will not be discussed. As a matter of courtesy if you are forewarned one of your players may be late, a telephone call to ascertain whether the opposition will have any objections to this, could prevent frayed tempers and bad feeling.

Provide adequate changing facilities for your visitors.

Finish the match with refreshments. If, as the visiting team, you do not intend staying for refreshments, please advise the home club’s secretary at least a day before the fixture.

It is expected that club officials will advise their members of their mode of conduct during a match.

Consult with the match secretary as well as the opposition in respect of postponing a match. Ensure the scorecard is posted online as soon as possible, otherwise a fine is involved.  

Please note Scorecards for the handicap cup should be scanned and sent to the Handicap Cup secretary.

The appropriate fee must be forwarded when registering new additional players once the playing season is underway. All fees and fines must be paid at the secretaries’ meeting or before.

Encourage your players to participate in tournaments. Details of local and nationwide tournaments can be found on Table Tennis Scotland’s website.
