The Chairman has posted the following to the Facebook group, please read this and tell all players, we want as many entrants as possible:-
***Singles event in memory of Abby***
Event will take place on Tuesday 18th October, with premier league players at green baize, div 1 players at Plaza, as agreed at the meeting half of the money will go to Dougie Mac and half in the prize pot for winner and runner up… this is your chance to be recognised as the best player in your division so don’t miss out !
Division 1 players are able to enter the premier knockout if they fancy a challenge but premier players must only enter the premier event only.
Entry fee will be £5 per player
After a few moans and groans about the double elimination format taking too long I have decided to tweak it to ensure players are not waiting around, so, this will be double elim, with players in the main section playing matches best of 3, once you go into the losers section the matches will all be best of 1. This will ensure that the tournament will run through smoothly and you will lag for the first break in each match, the final will be best of 3.
We will also be running a speed pool tournament on one table at each venue, this will be £1 per attempt and the time starts after your first ball has been struck after the break, you can have as many tries as you like with the person who is coming off timing the next attempt, I ask that you all please ensure that the times are recorded accurately and fairly, again, half the money taken will go to the winner and half to charity.
I need as many of you as possible to get involved in this which promises to be a great event and for a great cause ! After this there is only one more event night happening this season which will be a doubles event so the landlords will be happy that things will go back to normal 😉
!! PLEASE LET ME KNOW BELOW HOW MANY YOU HAVE COMING AND TO WHICH EVENT !!
