Winners of all 3 games on 1st February were Steve R, Alan, Mavis & Amy. Steve had best points difference. No picture of the winner but here’s the third place. League table so far.

This was on February 1st at Heckmondwike. The squad was Brendan, Pete, Margaret, Vero, Shirley, Melvyn, Carol, Paul & Keith. Each player played 4 games and had 2 rest periods. The scoring system is complicated but after 1 fixture out of 4 we are in 3rd place. This may change when official scores are released.

First melee of the new season with 24 members and Brendan won all 3 games with a massive points difference of +35. Marie, Terry B, Kevin and Amy also won 3 games. Thanks to Robin and Rita for scoring. Volunteers needed for the 11 remaining monthly melees.

The overall winner was Robin with Linda and Steve P in 2nd and 3rd place. 43 members took part over the 6 months from July to September; 9 failed to trouble the scorers.
