Senior Games Update Zone 4 Table Tennis
I am pleased to report that at the Zone 4 meeting this week I was advised that the $10 sport fee for Table Tennis will be covered by our Zone.
For those who have already submitted their registration and fees to me, your cheques have not yet been submitted, so you may want to send replacement cheques to avoid having to wait for refunds until after the games.
It would also be preferred if all registrants would send separate cheques for the BCSG membership fee of $20, and the registration fee of $55. That way, if play-downs are required, and you are not successful you will not have to wait for a refund of the Registration fee. JSYN – the $20 membership fee for the BCSG society is required and non-refundable.
Thanks,
Mike
