RANDOM TRIPLES 2026

Oct 22

1 min read

Thank you to all the players that attended the random triples to help raise funds for players possibly attending the World Championships in Canada in 2028.

On Thursday evening we had a full quota of 60 players, but by this morning the number had dropped to 52. In all fairness John Matthews played the first round and then stepped aside to umpire so that 17 triples were formed. Due to being 3 triples short, unfortunately the team in 5th in group 1 were eliminated as there was no knockout route for them to play.

Thank you to the volunteers at Bro Myrddin for their hospitality once again and to Sylvia for running the raffle. Thank you as well to everyone that donated a raffle prize.

The potential total that was raised was £5 from the entry fees (due to the remaining entry fee covering the hire of the venue) and approximately £194 from the raffle sales. Approximately £199 to be confirmed by the treasurer at the next meeting.

I hope you enjoyed this format and the experience of playing with others that you would not usually play with.
