Following the advice from government, we restricted play in the competition to 16 players and since we had twenty ready to play we asked for four volunteers to play at later time.
Tom B, Sean J, Eileen D and Tom D kindly agreed to play at 12.00 noon instead. We agreed that 16 is the ideal number playing and from now on we will find out by text on the Sunday night who will be playing on the Monday Competition. If we have more than 16 then we will ask, or have a roster, for players to play at the later time. It worked well today but weather might play a part as time goes on....but we'll deal with that also.
Ciaran W has just dropped one point over his nine games, thus far, leaving him on an amazing 116 total. His playing partner today Gerry L is flying up the ranks. Chris and Eileen are on and over the century. The weather was balmy and play was of a very high standard. Thanks Ciaran for the score sheet.

A new feature....some rules to peruse. Note especially the 2nd last paragraph as we've been saying the player whose boules hit the edge plays again immediately ...in fact the opposition play the next boule and alternately thereafter.
Ciaran took a few photos of the late starters to prove they didn't just concoct a score!!
And believe me we didn't!
