The large number of new players taking up real tennis and improving quickly at Cambridge has the effect of increasing the handicaps of players with established handicaps. From time to time it is deemed necessary, by our Committee, to make a general change to the handicaps of those playing off 35 and greater, to keep Cambridge in line with at other Clubs. If your handicap is 35 or greater you will notice that your handicap has been reduced by a few points (about 5%). We have waited for this moment, after the Category Tournaments have been completed, to make this adjustment and hope that you will appreciate the reasons for the change.
