(h) Can I get my score card after the tournament?
Score cards are kept by the WCC. If you have a smartphone or some type of camera, you may wish to take a picture of your card on tournament day.

(i) I come to the tournament every year. Can I help in any way?
Yes, you can. Thank you. Extra hands always make light work. We always appreciate help with set up (Friday afternoon) and take down (Saturday late afternoon and evening). As well, you could volunteer to referee or tally scores for categories you are not entered in. If you wish to volunteer, please send us an email at worldcrokinole@gmail.com. We always appreciate input on improvements to the tournament. You can submit ideas anytime by email or in person at our Annual General Meeting held each year in Tavistock on the 3rd Monday in October at 7 pm in the Upper Arena at the Tavistock and District Recreation Centre, 1 Adam Street, Tavistock.
