Seasons Greetings

As we break for Traditional Festivals and see the New Year in, we truly wish our fantastic Sukhumvit  Social  Pool  League community & friends a relaxing time to regenerate for a restart in January 2016 and those travelling a safe journey.

It was pleasing to see that most teams played catch-up matches from last week and prior.
Breakers Bomb could not field a team for the round 6 catch-up match rescheduled for this week, so it did not proceed.  Given the time of year as extenuating circumstances, the committee would prefer the match played and no later than end of Jan 2016
To bring you right up to date, on this page are the latest standings for both comps. 
All 9 Ball catch-up matches are listed in this tracking table pictured first. Wednesday 9 Ball Standings as updated is next followed by the Monday Mixed which is unchanged. 
9 Ball catch -up tracking

Summary guidelines for match deferment
Matches can only be deferred once. Without extenuating circumstances, if a team cannot play on the new date the match is declared a forfeit with points going to the opponent.
Deferring an original match to a later date can be done once, as a good faith option. This gives a requested captain discretion to agree the circumstances and gives the requesting team a choice to play later, thereby avoiding a forfiet..
Match rescheduling must be done no later than 24 hours before it is due to be played, This gives time to allow for alternatives and / or mitigation,  
All deferred matches must be  played within 8 weeks. Any matches still not played at the end of the season must be played within 1 week after the normal schedule ends . 
Unless there are extenuating issues when a deferred match is not played for any other reason, it becomes a prima-facie forfeit against the team unable to play.

On the Deferred list and highlighted in yellow on the standings are teams still to play catch up rounds. Deferred matches as the catch-up match is played then count, if not played, it is treated as forfeit with no points being the demerit.

imageA couple of format change have been made to make understanding and reading easier

  1. Played and Match won points are now shown as one aggregated Ladder Point, being no longer separate.
  2. The next round information now shows as single line reference for each team. On the same line is now their next location and opposing team. This removes the need for away teams to to search the list to find who they are playing next

Here is the revised format.. The revised presentation is for easier understanding and does not change any positions (POS)



Here is a picture of what it looked like before we changed to the above format.

Just a bit about the scoring

There has been some open discussion about simplifying the two tier ladder scoring, It was decided however to leave it unchanged, at least for this season.
In a 9 Ball match the first to win 19 games gets the match point. The second tier accumulates games won for all rounds to date as a % age to determine a clear ladder position. This basically sub-ranks teams with the same accumulated match points.
So don't think it is just about winning matches. As we saw last year, the race is not always about being the leader but it also fostered great camaraderie for the races within the rankings. And even if you lose on a night, don't toss in the towel; Good percentages on loss nights might make the difference for not only the ball in hand but a trophy too.

The New Tracking Sheet

Unlike the previous scroll down toilet paper style tracking sheet, we are trialling one formatted to let each team see on a line across the page, their results and their schedule for the rest of the season.
Yes it is a bit small, but unlike pool in our bars where touching is treated as a foul, a pinch out for a bigger display on your smart phone or CTRL ++ on a PC is a remedy for those of us who are starting to find it hard to see the ball.
Sorry about all the colours, It just seems it could be a good way to not only save the forests but have a “see at a glance perspective” with detail as well. We will give it a try and see how it pans out?

Communications

We also want to try to make communication simpler for captains. So please send this on to your team, friends and followers If they subscribe for updates at www.sukhumvitsocialpool.com. they will getp the scores and other league news directly in their inbox as we post them.
imageIt is Opt-In / Opt-out anytime, non-span system and we do not share subscribers emails with anyone, not even sponsor bars 
Another good way to get our news is to friend us on Facebook. https://www.facebook.com/suksocpool  where we post other social happenings and information too. We are working on that to have results automatically posted there too. 

Promoting Our Good Luck

Here is a flyer that Bars and local Businesses have started posting to promote the enjoyment we all get in our community and let new players know we are about. If you want one or know someone who may like to promote us and don't have a colour printer just let us know.
