St David's Day Tournament
With just eight players, tonight's tournament was played as a round-robin.
The Welsh team was scrambled together, with Martin called up to even the numbers, his eligibility being solely that he had been to Wales.
As it was the Non-Welsh filled the top three positions after handicaps were applied, so comfortably won the day.
The individual prize provided an upset again, a common occurrence in this handicap-based tournament.
Daniel scored a win over Adam and claimed a draw in against Andrew in a clock-affected game to put him over the line after handicaps were applied.
Joshua managed to win all games, but even a picket fence was not enough to catch Daniel.
Pictures of this year's winner and some past winners are below.
