99th Post.....Ciaran retains the League Title.

Image
 Monday Competition BBC Group A Ciaran maintained his fine form to the end to retain the Tom Walsh Trophy .  He had an unassailable lead even before today's play. Final result sheet for BBC Group A Competition Dec 2021. As you can see James gave Ciaran a good run for his money.  They both played identical number of matches and scored fifteen 'thirteens' each.  However, Ciaran had a slightly better scoring average over the best of twenty-four counting scores.  Hard luck James and congrats also to Sean who was just off the pace. The timed, three changes during the two hour slot was novel for us but it worked well.  Everyone enjoyed the games and there was regularly more than twelve playing. Agnes presenting Ciaran with the Monday Competition Trophy. Our final competition games before the Christmas break was well attended and enjoyable despite the wind chill.   Ciaran bearing gifts.... Matchplay Competition  is hotting up.....while slow to start, with the difficulties arrangin

  Monday 22-11-21          Group A Penultimate Competition Day          12 players today. Agnes and Larry celebrating a 'Six Pointer'! Cool and crisp morning for close to end of November. Maureen...'blinded by the light'...or the photographer! Guess what's coming??? It's all in the poses...... Matchplay:  The Doubles Matchplay is underway with a mix of players from Groups A and B. They are difficult enough to arrange as 4 players have to agree on a time/day etc.  However, they are well underway and enjoyable....even in defeat!                       Ten players entered their choice of pairings to win overall: [ no worries if you don't feature...you may still come out on top.....some may have voted for themselves!]                               Shay Coyne / Maureen Deane          [x2]                                John O Connor / Agnes Graham      [x2]                              Rose McDonnell / James Rowland [x1]                              Ciaran Walsh
