Abingdon United B vs Spread Eagle
If you know and play Aunt Sally you’ll know that Charlbury Beer Festival started the WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS a few years back.
Last year our own Abingdon League Barry Parker was runner-up in the competition going out to Henry Johnson of Yarnton of all places !
There aren’t many Abingdon players in the fray and there are a few places left – it’s limited to 32 playing all heats on the afternoon.
It’s free to enter (past the Beer Fest entry fee) and there’s a trophy and the bragging rights of being a WORLD CHAMPION at something!
See http://www.charlburybeerfestival.org/aunt_sally.htm for details and registration by email.
Oh and there’s a Beer Festival which has great beer/ciders, food and entertainment throughout the day and proceeds to local charities. Entry is £10.00 and gets you 2 drinks tokens & the official glass. Non beer drinkers & Pimms drinkers £5.00 entry. Under 18s free.
Enter the competition or go in support of our own and have a great day out!
Good Luck Abingdon !
Those of you who worry about the Top Dolls trophy can now view the Section report in the Scores and Reports page which gives each Section’s 10 Players with the Top Dolls.
Also if you want to know your overall ranking in the entire League then take a look at the Player report which lists everyone by their Doll Average. Compare your own performance year on year and see the improvement (or not) !
Enjoy!
SECRETARIES – please cross check your scores especially when teams have dropped out of your section.
If you have players with mis-spelt names – these will go on the plaques as is! Please email the webmaster and I’ll change them! Next year make your registration forms legible !
NEW! – Hall of Fame – the over 12’s ! Thought this’ll be fun to see and encourage those who don’t always get that elusive 6 !
