There is just one more night of club play for the current season. Our
seasons are from September through August. Starting on 6-Sep-10 the
new season begins. Although ratings are carried over, they will all be
boosted by 10 points to make up for the steady deflation of ratings
inherent in the rating system. Such boosts are usually made annually.
Wins, losses, and averages will have fresh starts in September.
