So, that’s it then end of the season.
Make sure you get the cards in by Saturday Morning. Any card not entered online by midday Saturday will forfeit the points for both teams, potentially missing out winning the league. DONT BE THAT TEAM.
If you can’t get online contact someone who can.
8’s Knockout teams will be contacted personally and playoffs if there are any will be Wednesday the 12th September.
An amazing amount of players turned up for the annual Founder Members competition, quite possibly the best turn out in many years with 23 making trip up to Steventon Sports Social Club.
On what was undoubtedly one of the nicest evenings with the warm and pleasant atmosphere matching the weather, almost every leg going from 3 sticks and 1 stick and then back to 6, play didn’t finish until 22:00!
The semi finals saw Dave Davies vs Tosh Wooloff and Jim Hamilton vs Brian ‘Laddie’ Moodie face off for a place in the final.
The final will see Laddie and Dave fight it out for the trophy
Just a reminder to have last weeks results online before 18:00 tomorrow evening. We will be moving the week number to 11 and I wouldn’t want your scores to be entered on the wrong week and not counted. Cheers
The Founder Members Competition will be played this coming Thursday 19th July at Steventon Sports Social Club. 8:30pm start
