45 Minute Tournament
Play-off for Third Place:
Gordon Powell 1 Brian Willcock 0
The third place play-off game was played at a lightning pace and decided by a blunder by Brian when each player had used less than ten minutes of their time.
Tonight was a quieter night at the club with other attendees being Andrew, Greg, Mark and John, and Greg’s son Mathew and Gordon’s daughter Isabella.
Players who failed to play four or more games in the group stages have had their records removed from the final standings.
