AC 2-legged Competition

The 2-Legged AC event was held on 3rd July. The first try out of this type of event: 2 players per team, 2 rounds, 2 legs each round! All matches 14 points, with each round consisting of an alternate stroke doubles, and a singles. Some advanced singles did take place which was interesting to see for high bisquers.

Lovely weather so we got all the rounds in. There were 2 points for a win, bonus 2 points for pegging out, 1 point for a draw.

Good to see Gabrielle, Alan Cottle and Clive playing to support higher handicappers.

Times were limited, maybe too strictly,a as most games did not peg out! A lesson for the next time!

The winners were Bob and Robyn Clark with 12 points, followed by Simon and Margaret from Ealing with 6 points, and Clive and Tony also with 6 points. So Bob and Robyn received the chocolate bars from Chairman Clive.

Many thanks to all who played and supported. Plenty of ideas emerged from the play, particularly, tactical, so we will have to try and assist players to improve their standard and understanding of the game.

Thanks to the AC referees and the ROT Gabrielle.
