Following the securement of a sponsorship deal, the Horsham League are pleased to announce the return of its summer competition known as the "King & Barnes Open Doubles" last fought for in 1999. The magnificent perpetual cup has resurfaced and smart clock trophies for winning and losing finalists have already been commissioned. Entries will be accepted up to 31st March and will be open to any Pairs based in Sussex and Surrey, with all rounds being played on Horsham League tables. For the first year back entry will be FREE, with a maximum of 32 Pairs, first come first served. (There is scope for expansion next year should the competition prove popular in its first year back.) The format will be a simple knockout (as previously) and games will be played on Tuesdays, once a fortnight throughout June, July and August, whilst trying not to encroach upon Jubilee Cup, Off-the-Spot and 4-Pin activity. Condition of entry will be that competitors adhere to the set night.Brighton have a good tradition in this competition: Who can forget multiple winners Chris Tupper and Colin Smith, champions in 1987/88 and then five years in a row from 91/92 to 95/96 ? Other famous names from Brighton on the cup are Terry Race and Steve Over (86/87) and Bob Toye and Tony Franks (88/89). An entry form is attached HERE: Attachment DeletedEntries can also be submitted through the medium of the Forum, by PM'ing me a completed form. Clive Thompson, Horsham League Chairman.You may read about the competition's history and some photos of past winners (and their victory spoils !) here: docs.google.com/document/d/19Tq1JbAcqPVbDR66-YPf_1tR6m9eKpULJaiohvwGaFg/pub

Re quarter final draw: Jim is not available on the 12th, he has asked me to request a postponement till July 19th. Here's hoping Matt and / or Joe read this and can agree to a re-schedule. RSVP using Proboards (Horsham & District league) if this is OK with you.

Sorry to mess you about, Jim's attendance issue has been resolved: we're OK to proceed with this game as scheduled. See you on the 12th.
