The first round of the Warwickshire County Parks (WCP) Men’s Merit was held on 23rd June at Hollyfields with an original entry of 29 players this meant with 4 Byes however there were 5 no-shows.
The Committee had a challenge with the last 16 of Men’s Merit. The situation is, the first round of 32 has been played and there has been some round the green comments about roll-up, and using two days for the event which was on the original form. Also, we are aware there is one possibly two not able to attend on 30th June. So, we offer the following clarification.
ALL players still in the event were contacted and given the research the following has been agreed by the officers of the Association.
-
- ALL last 16 Players will be able to have up to 15 minutes of roll-up from 13:30.
- Scratch time will be 13:45
- Green Clear 13:55

Should any players opponent not attend on 30th June they shall be put through to the next round of the competition.
The future running of the event will be discussed at the next WCP Management Committee meeting taking on board comments and any concerns raised, including limiting the finals day to 16. Generating a qualifying procedure, avoiding where possible clashes with other events to mention a few.
Your Chair has volunteered to take Ciaran Andrews the WCP Junior Merit Winner to South Yorkshire to play in the British Parks (BP) Event on the same day, should he be successful in this event this will lead to the unfortunate withdrawal from the last 16.
A re-draw will not be done on the day. Game 4 will proceed to the next round. Game 1 will be decided at 13:45.
WCP Management has discussed and will offer to pay for the Entry of the Last 4 of the competition, in the BP Senior Individual Merit at Hollinsend Park S12 2SR South Yorkshire on Sunday 25th Aug 10:00. However, in previous years BP have offered us additional places for players who have entered the competition at county level to attend, this would be at the players own cost of £20 per person.
Please do understand that the clashes with other events often cannot be avoided and that WCP are governed by dates determined by BP also with a number of other leagues using “spare” days in the calendar it is tricky to cover all eventualities. Circumstances evolve and the Management Committee has spent significant time debating the best possible outcome in the current situation.
Dress Code for Merit as WCP League Dress Code.
For this event we have chosen to not adopt BCGBA or BP Dress code – we shall only require players conform to the General WCP Dress code as follows: Players must wear smart clean conventional full length or ¾ length trousers, slacks, jeans or knee length tailored shorts (no shorter) and of a single colour together with a sleeved shirt or jumper at all times. Not permitted at any time are shell suits, tracksuits, vests, strap tops and sport or football shorts. Offending players can be reported to and will be dealt with by the Management Committee, as well as removal from the competition.
Sun 9th Jun
