Sussex Open Weekend AC Tournament

The first of Sussex County's open tournaments of the season was won this year by Dominic Nunns for the second time; he last won it in 2019.

Dominic is a member of Sussex County and has appeared in the competition winners list every year since 2005 when he won the annual High Bisque tournament for new players; he won the club's most prestigious AC trophy, the Moore Cup, five years later (for the first of many times) and has played nationally and internationally in both forms of the game.

Congratulations to Dominic and thanks for also managing the event. Thanks also to Rachel, Richard, Angela and Marion who provided the lunches.
