It’s easy as 1,2,3

A new competition for Huddersfield this year. The 1,2,3 event is on June 16th starting at 945 and and lasts all day. Teams of 3 play singles, doubles and triples some simultaneously.

This is popular in the South and Midlands and this is the first event of its kind in the North. Demand will be high as there are only 10 places available.

Entry £10 per team. All money returned as prizes. There’ll be a raffle, free tea, coffee and biscuits all day in our new clubhouse and a warm sunny day all making a great day of pétanque. Enter on Northern Pétanque website or by talking to a committee member. Roll up! Roll up!

It’s a 3 horse race!

Members Monthly melee result for January. Marie returned to winning ways and someone called Clive came second with Yvonne 3rd. All this means that 3 have broken clear with 2 months left. Good performances from the 7 players who won all 3 games but Brendan and Nigel didn’t have the points difference they needed this week.

Jingle Boules

As Santa’s sleigh, weighed down with sets of boules as Xmas presents, shoots over Castle Hill we all gaze up and wonder “How the hell does it stay up there with all those boules on board?” but our second thought is “Happy holidays to all our members and followers”.

Next competition is January Member’s melee on 13th January 2019. Between now and then social play is available on normal days and on 23rd December we’ll put on Tea, Coffee & Mince Pies in the new Clubhouse.
