The season kicks off on Monday 2nd September 2019 with the AGM meeting at 7:30 pm.
We have a vacancy for a Macclesfield C team Captain as Mick Renshaw has had to step down.We need a volunteer if we are to run third team in the Stockport league.
Also Dave Risley is stepping down from being Tournament Secretary so this is also a vacant position. Please advise me or Geoff ASAP
The Autumn 2019 grades have been published by the ECF. These are available to viw on this website
The two 2018-2019 club tournaments played under standard time limits have now finished. The winner of the Club Championship is James Heppell; the winner of the Pomeroy Cup is Francis Moan. I understand from Francis that the two games in his final were closely fought. They finished Francis Moan 1½-½ Ant Brough. My standard time limit games against James were also close: finishing with two draws.
The title was decided by James winning both of the subsequent rapidplay games.
Six players took part in the Pomeroy Cup: John Astley, Ant Brough, Tony Lane, Francis Moan, Mick Renshaw, Tom Robson. Twelve players took part in the Club Championship: Phil Cattermole, Phil Colville, Patrick Curr, Colin Davison, Carl Gartside, James Heppell, Geoff Laurence, Denzil Lobo, Dave Risley, Tony Soames, John-Paul Taylor, Joachim Trier, Unfortunately, for health reasons, Patrick had to withdraw before completing all his games. I hope that his health will allow him to participate in club activities next season. Thank you to all the players who took part for their sportsmanship and making the job of the organiser an easy one.
I hope next season's competitions will be equally enjoyable for all players - whether they win or lose!
