it's simply not a common form of play in ACBL, we have plenty of sectional and regional tournaments ("congresses" to you).

England is extremely unusual playing 'at home' matches. Even where there are leagues, they tend to be played at clubs with a club TD on hand.

Not in my experience. So a referee is needed for rulings in first instance.
You may not play in Business house, NICKO, Crockfords, Gold Cup, but we usually play these matches in homes or places of business. I think you play in the Gold Cup.

In England we have a list of TDs who can be called on to give a ruling and a separate list of referees who are usually asked to hear appeals.

Stefanie: I think you have misinterpreted what Frances said. She is suggesting that England is unusual compared with other countries because matches are played at home in England.

Bridge Irregularities: In the event of any bridge irregularity, if it is possible the team captains should agree on a ruling. If the captains agree, then the ruling is final. If the captains cannot agree on a ruling, then both should submit written statements of the event to the league commissioner who will make a ruling in consultation with a director. If there is disagreement about a ruling during the knockout phase, the teams should play the playoff boards in case the result of the ruling is a tie.
