Sorry Martyn, I hadn't read your reply which had already corrected/addressed Doron's confusion on the advanced and level question.

Doron, Ernie et al
The question is whether play is advanced or ordinary, OR handicap or level - but NOT advanced or level as these are not mutually exclusive.
At Mosman for example, we have been playing - as the default, whether tournament or social - advanced handicap for many years.
The advantage is that the higher bisquers learn about leaves and lifts and tactics much earlier.
To answer Doron's question, I am not aware of advanced play for players in NSW Bronze tournaments.
Martyn.

Hi allIm sure I havnt seen any real h'cap tournaments regardless of div.I think it is good practice for the beginners, the rules are simpler andexcept for the bisques its the same as level ptayernie----- Original Message -----From: Doron GunzburgSent: Thursday, May 01, 2008 5:34 PMSubject: Re: [AUS-Croquet] Advanced PlayErnie
The question is whether , for fourth Div , your tournaments are advanced or level play. In Vic the tradition has been to only have level...which in my view is not helpful from a learning perspective. having been instrumental in moving Vic from half to full courts for this group for tournament play (with no adverse consequences) I'm now looking at this next step.
Thanks John and Kay.
What about NSW and Tas?

Hi Doron
In Qld I dont know of any real h'cap tournaments being played.
Advanced adds another dimension to the game
and if you have to give a heap of bisques it gives
you an extra chance to catch up.

Hi all
I'd like to get an idea of the situation in each State as to whether or
not all tournaments are Advanced Play, or whether 4th Div players are
excluded from this (as in Vic at present).
Would appreciate your help
Regards
Doron
