Last week saw the Autumn Quickplay tournament contested. This was well organised by Tony Soames.(Report below)
“ The turnout for the Autumn event was down on last year; only 14 players made it out into the balmy evening. Maybe the new handicap system was seen as too stringent for some, but it worked.
Two tied for first prize with 110 Marc sharing the honours with 156 John-Paul.
Two also tied for third spot with the stalwart Ant and newcomer James sharing the rest of the cash.
There were a number of quick mates but also some long intricate endings that ought to help those involved in the forthcoming season.
As there were so few people the food on offer was too much for even the trenchermen present. Unfortunately this will be binned, as the landlady informed me her dogs are already too fat.”
Thanks to Tony for organising this and thanks to everyone who took part.
