TC - NSBC Club Championship
The NSBC tournament committee has decided to re-establish the process to determine an annual NSBC Club Champion. The NSBC Club Champion is to be awarded to a club member for execellent performance in a basket of defined club & festval events during the year. This is a similar process (but different events) that the old Lindfield Club Champion process. The NSBC Events that will be used to decide our 2018 club champion are:
Event | Venue | Date | Inportance (Weight) |

Each event winners (down to 7th) will score club members a number of points that will be accumulated over the 12 events in the year. The standard points to be awarded to for each event are:
1st = 10pts, 2nd=7, 3rd=5; 4th=4; 5th=3; 6th=2; 7th=1pt
Our 3 major sponsored events will be awarded 2x ie double points because of their significance to the club.
Whilst the NSBC has previously not awarded the Club Championship; The winners have been calculated for all the previous years using this methodolgy since the club started in 2007 by the merger of Lindfield, Willoughby & Cove bridge clubs. The 2018 NSBC will be the 29th winner of a Club Championship award.
