8 teams entered on a great autumn afternoon. Prize money of £45 to give out. (one team only had 2 players).

After 3 rounds only one team had won all their 3 games. Three teams were on 2 wins and 3 teams were on 1 win. One team failed to register a win.

When the scores were all added up and checked through the winners were new members Pete and Margaret playing as The Odd Couple recently returned from a 6 month break on a caravan park near Bordeaux where they played a bit of boules.  They took away £21. Of the teams with 2 wins SRB (Sue, Roy and Brendan) claimed 2nd place with £15 and Paul, Barrie and Sandie (BPS) won 3rd place of £9,

SRB could have won the prize but their game went to 12-13. If it had been 13-12 They’d have scooped the 1st prize. C’est la vie.

Standard melee to start off our own winter league. 17 players. Cool and windy. At the very end players were starting to drift away as some rain swept in so many won’t know the result.

It was Rita’s day. 3 Wins and +18 followed by Sandra B with 3 wins and +12.  No-one else won all 3 games but 8 won 2 out of 3 and the best points difference was Yvonne with +15.

Here’s today’s table.

The final event had 14 players and it was cold and cloudy but we were kept going by the cake that Elizabeth had put in her freezer from the Mansfield visit.

Maureen came 3rd, Bob (a new member) did well coming 2nd but Brendan did really well coming 1st,

At the end of August Thursday evenings ceased to exist. Play returns to afternoons starting at 1pm. This saves a lot of time adjusting times as the sun sets earlier and earlier. Thursday evenings return on 3rd May 2018.
