Looking to continue the trend of running a Summer Off the Spot League - this would be the tenth year of the competition.
“Off the Spot” is a format which has been used as an occasional winter competition by some leagues. It can be quite a leveler between different standards of player, and certainly forces different shots from the norm in some circumstances, but can still be treated as a “serious” contest whilst fun to play.
Proposal:
• Teams can be any group of at least four players who can base themselves at one venue. There will be no registration of players, but there is an understanding that no player will play for more than one team during the season - in other words once you have played for a team you are registered for that team
• All matches to be organized as follows:
o Four singles games, and two doubles games
o Home captain shall nominate their player(s) first
o Away team to break in games two, four and six
o ALL SHOTS TO BE PLAYED “OFF THE SPOT”
o NO table or player handicaps
o Normal refreshment catering
• League points awarded as one point per game win with a bonus point two points for a match win, and one point for a draw
Would like to invite ANY group of players from the Lewes, Brighton, or Mid-Sussex areas to register an interest. Will then put together a proposal for a league
If you think you may be interested, please contact me on barbilliardscomps@outlook.com, via this forum, or mobile as soon as possible, but no later than THE END OF MAY.
I will organise contact details and start and finish dates once I have an idea of the number of teams that are interested, probably early to mid June
Look forward to hearing from interested parties very soon.
