What Is The CSC
Background:
On November 27, 1964, twenty-two dedicated shuffleboard players from across Canada elected an official executive body that confirmed the status of the Canadian Shuffleboard Congress and the Constitution, Rules, and Regulations.
A resolution was passed, "Each Province is to have Regional areas with each area composed of their own elected executives.
The elected executives, in turn, will choose a member(s) to represent their group to the Provincial Association.
The Provincial Association would have representation in the Canadian Shuffleboard Congress."
For a complete listing of the Official Rules and Regulations governing Table Shuffleboard, please contact the Secretary of the Canadian Shuffleboard Congress.
