3) Wear club tops (or white shirts) and whites to play, with the proviso that competitors making up a rink (be it pairs, trips, or fours, must all wear matching shirts, be they club tops or plain white.

4) Regulation bowling shoes only to be worn on the green.

5) Semi-finalists (plus officials and umpires) are cordially invited to tea/coffee/sandwiches in the Bar from 16.30 up to their starting time.
