CAUTION, OVERLOAD! Those who are responsible for setting the calendar do not have the easy task: there are many tests and few dates. In addition, school holidays are, in general, free from any test.

CAUTION, OVERLOAD!

Those who are responsible for setting the calendar do not have the easy task: there are many tests and few dates. In addition, school holidays are, in general, free from any test. You should know that committees do not have mandatory dates for the stadium they organize, they just have recommended dates. However, the dates of the league finals are imposed.

In the end, the player who has "a good season" and goes several times to the final stage, the national final, very often considers spending too many days in bridge, not to mention the extra expense. This situation is neither satisfactory for the participants nor for the development of competitions. I admit to making an observation there but not bringing any solution. Letting yourself be guided by routine, or worse by the sole concern of balancing budgets, would not be suitable.

It’s up to the managers to play.
