. You might want to put them in the right month if at all possible, rather than April or May. I suppose this is mostly leagues submitting in bulk at the end of the season. You shouldn't use a process based on dates unless you know that the dates are reasonably reliable.The process for 6 monthly grading is as yet unspecified. The double counting issue may affect this as well, so results in the final 4NCL weekend, Frome, Sunningdale and other Spring Bank Holiday Congresses are liable to have a disproportionate effect.
