In relation to small fields, the CONGU manual only mentions how to calculate CSS for 5 or less competitors in Cats 1, 2, 3 and 4.

I thought CSS could only drop 1 shot from SSS....or has this changed.?

You know by now not to get into discussions on CSS.

If CSS goes from 35 points to 33 it means that CSS has gone up 2 from SSS.

Hang on a minute...
I don't have the CONGU manual to hand, but if as rosecott states small fields are for 5 or fewer players, then in this case we have 6 players and none of them were in buffer relative to SSS. In which case why wasn't it reductions only?

It uses the best nett score in relationship to their buffer zone to workout the CSS it is on page 70 of the congu manual.

It give CSSes for field sizes 1 to 9

There are 2 procedures - one for less than 10 and one for 5 or less.

Ah right. Thanks to you and Louise for clarifying.
