The above table should be used to reduce the bisque allocation depending on the court size.
For shortened games the Schedule of Bisques in the laws should be used as per law 53.1
Note if shortened games are played on a smaller court then the adjustment for a shortened game should be performed before the court size adjustment.
If playing doubles then add the handicaps of both players together and divide by 2 to get the 'team' handicap, before performing any necessary adjustments.
