Surbiton Croquet Club - Bridge Handicaps

Bridge is run on a handicap basis. So, please do not be put-off if you are an improver (or, indeed, an international).

The table below shows current handicaps. After being allocated a starting figure your handicap goes up and down depending on your performance - just like the croquet system on which it is based.

The inital handicaps shown below are either a player's starting handicap or their handicap at the end of the 2012/13 season, whichever is the most recent.

Previous handicaps from 2008 to March 2013 can be found by clicking - here.

In each handicap event a pair's handicaps (expressed as percentages) are added to their raw score to get their adjusted score.
Handicaps are reduced by ¼ for adjusted scores above 62% and by ½ for above 68%.
Handicaps are increased by ¼ for adjusted scores below 50% and by ½ for below 44%.
