Heckmondwike win tie-break climax to Anniversary Event

Rainworth and Heckmondwike play one end triples tie-break for first place. 3rd place initially awarded to Rochdale goes to Trafford following stewards enquiry.

There was a magnanimous gesture from Rainworth who donated their prize money to the HPC charity.


The final placings on the day

A great day of pétanque was had on a hot sunny day with over 70 players and spectators filling the terrains. The format was unusual consisting of leagues in the morning which split the field into Gold & Silver knockouts who played semifinals, 3rd/4th place playoff and the final.

There was lots of interest from Park runners and passers bt dropping in for look at whats going on. Many thanks to all HPC Members who helped out. We’ll probably repeat it next year.
