Limes Triples 2009
Play starts at midday (prompt !) tomorrow and finishes around 8pm.
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 2000 is the maximum break, if you go over you not only lose the break but have to wear a dunce's/clown'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.
Good luck to all who are taking part. 8-)

Well, it was indeed a great day, bar billiards both competitive and at times light-hearted with much banter and the occasional bit of barracking !
The clown's hat changed hands several times and was seen on the following heads : Trish, Iain M, Baz, the Reaper, Fritz (twice) and Bobbie. But Colin Robbins led the way by exceeding the maximum permitted break of 3,000. Doesn't do to get too greedy ! ;D
A full transcript of the day with all the scores will be made available soon, but meanwhile congratulations to the following 'proper' award winners:
MAIN EVENT
Winners: Dave Constable, Genette Nicholls and Sharon Ward;
Runners-up: Dave Ingram, Alan Nicholls and Angie Turner.
PLATE
Winners: Gary Powell, Iain Mountain and Margo Thompson;
Runners-up : Keith Wilkinson, Frank Doyle and Aaron Hill.
Thanks to Jason for his organisation of this super event. 8-)
