1st August: First Draft
Included with responses to the recent survey, five teams gave notice of their withdrawal. We have however recruited two new teams (Reform Declarers and a resurrected RAC Bentley). Therefore we expect 24 teams in the forthcoming season. Consequently we have moved to four six-team divisions.
This is a schematic view of the changes.
| Division | New 1 | New 2 | New 3 | New 4 | Out |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Old 1 | 1234 | 56 | |||
| Old 2 | 12 | 345 | 6 | ||
| Old 3 | 2 | 456 | 13 | ||
| Old 4 | 12 | 34 | 5 | ||
| Old 5 | 1 | 34 | 2 | ||
| New | 12 |
The numbers represent the finishing position in last year's division (reading horizontally) and locate that team in the new vertical divisions.
