Club Rules
Excerpt from Addiscombe CC Regulations
Section 3 Para 12.5 circa 1953
Excessive Absence Due to the
excessive number of absences at the clubroom during the past year it has
become necessary to put the following new rules and procedures into
operation immediately:
1. Sickness No excuse; the club will
no longer accept your Doctor's Certificate as proof. We believe that if
you are able to go to your Doctor you are able to attend the clubroom.
2.Death (Your Own) This will be accepted as an excuse. We should like two
weeks notice, however, since we feel it is your duty to train someone else
for your riding.
3. Death (Other than your own) This
is no excuse, there is nothing you can do for them and henceforth no time
off will be allowed for funerals. However, in case this should cause some
hardship to some of your friends, there are those who might care to note
that, on your behalf, the club has a special scheme in conjunction with
the local council for lunchtime burials, thus ensuring that no time is
lost from the clubroom.
4. Leave of Absence for an Operation
We wish to discourage any thoughts you may have of needing an operation
and, henceforth, no leave of absence will be granted for visits to
hospitals. The club believe that, as long as you are a member here, you
will need all of whatever you already have and should not consider having
any of it removed.
