Registrations now open for Winter 2024 Pennant – Tuesday*, Wednesday & Friday
Registrations for our Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday Autumn 2024 Pennants are now open.
Tuesday Pennant starts on Tuesday, May 28; register here https://www.revolutionise.com.au/coburgttc/events/237131
- fees: $84.00, payable when season starts.
- registrations close on May 14, 2024
* NB: starting in early June this year, CTTC will trial a new Thursday night pennant for players above 1600 Ratings Central points. We anticipate that the majority of current Section 1 players will shift to this new timeslot. In turn, this would mean that there will be significant upwards movement for Tuesday night players, ie most current Section 2 players will shift to Section 1, Section 3 players to Section 2, etc. As a result, players might be moving to a different time slot to that which they generally play in. Could you please make sure that you clearly indicate your preferred time slot/s on the registration form. Please contact Brian on 0492 904 954 if you have any questions. Separate registrations for the new Thursday evening pennant will open shortly.
Wednesday Pennant starts on Wednesday June 5, 2024 (duration of season will be confirmed after registrations close). Register here https://www.revolutionise.com.au/coburgttc/events/237130
