Some years ago St. Leonards Bridge Club committed to Zero Tolerance for bad behaviour. The
then committee elected to adhere to the references listed below and it was adopted as Club
policy.
This has never been rescinded and therefore we would like to remind all of our members of the
policy listed below.
The Committee ask that all Club Director’s report any incidences to a Committee member
immediately.
