The higher handicapped players had the better of it this year with Joe
Lennon just pipping Mark Elliot. There were seven players in all, which
meant that two people (Mark and Jamieson Walker) had five games while the
others (David Appleton, James Hopgood, Joe, Tony Whateley and Ian Wright)
only had four. The games were 14-point, time-limited to 90 minutes, played
to advanced rules with bisques, the lift hoops being 3 and 5. David was the
most likely player to try the double peel but in fact he twice chose to make
five hoops and leave all the balls in or near to corner four in an effort to
extract bisques. This was a partial success in that he won one game and lost
the other. Joe prevented the tactic by taking his first ball round and
pegging it out; that was a complete success.
Thanks to James's mother for making lunch for us all!
