Limes Triples 2010 - Saturday 17th July.
This is a fun competition, held annually at the Limes, South Merstham (great pub) for Redhill League members and a limited number of special guests.
The entry is hopefully 48, and for the Draw beforehand every name goes into a hat for either Pool A, Pool B or Pool C dependent on skill level. Each of the 16 Triples thus drawn at random is put into one of four groups, and you play against the other 3 triples in your group, then there's quarterfinals, semifinals and the grand Final. And of course a Plate competition.
The C-rated player in the combi has 1st break in first prelim game, the B player first go in the 2nd game and the A player goes first in the 3rd game. At all times 3000 is the maximum break, if you go over you not only lose the break but have to wear a dunce's/jester's/donkey hat until someone else does similar or has a black peg to take it off you.
Always a great day with lots of see-sawing in fortune (and ee-awing !) and the inevitable great banter.
Invitations will be going out shortly.

I`d just like to say a big thankyou to Gary, Jason and everyone else from Redhill who invited us to play in the Triples yesterday :) As always, it was a really enjoyable day, good company, excellent food and very good tables. Thanks to my partners, Baz & Glyn for helping to get to the final and well done to Gary, Coleen & young Amy for just pipping us at the end. We will be running our Triples in Worthing later in the year and maybe some of you would like to make the journey down, it is run along the same lines as your competition and also a fun day.
Thanks again Sir KT

A great and enjoyable day, as said. Organisation landing in Gary's lap as Jason only arrived back from hols half way through. He did a great job, and even managed to win the event, though much of that must have been down to some strong female support ! ;) (Colleen and young Amy) - and heavy handicapping of Sir K.T. ! ;D
Also well done to Fritz and his team for a great recovery from earlier adversities to walk off with the Plate. Didn't stop the BB Warrior from receiving his 26th award of the season, tho' ;D ;D ;D
