PRESIDENT’S CUP   –  PLAYED AT BLAKEDOWN ON SUNDAY  12TH NOVEMBER 2023

This event attracted 21 entrants this year. In the past, the event has been “Drawn Pairs”, but on this occasion the President decided that “Drawn Triples” should be played. Seven teams were determined following a random draw, These were :

Team  1.         Colin Shuck / Sharon Finch / June Green.           Team 2.         Jonathon Smith / Richard Rose / Jenny Gibbs.          Team 3.          Dave Grove / Carol Cumino / Maureen Tingle.

Team 4.          Rob Franklin / Malcolm Saunders / Jim Tingle    Team 5.         Terry Clifford / Carol Handley /  Belinda Gibbs.          Team 6.          Alan Pashley / Richard Payne / Avis Beddow.

Team 7.          Kate Pashley / Tyler Shuck / Anne Hough

The competition involved teams playing in “a League ” format  –  6 ends per game – with 2 points for a win and 1 point for a draw.  In the event of a tied result, shot difference would be the deciding factor.

When the final round of games commenced there were two teams in contention for the cup  – teams 4 and 6. These two teams were drawn against each other for this final game, which after a hard fought contest ended in a 6-6 draw. As a consequence both teams had scored 7 points. from a maximum possible of 10 points – both teams having won 3 and lost 1 of the previous four games. Team 4 ( Rob Franklin / Malcolm Saunders / Jim Tingle ) Had a superior shot Difference  –  55 shots for and 24 shots against  ( +31 )compared with team 6′ s  shot difference of -6  ( 44 shots for and 50 shots against.

As a result of the shot difference Team 4 were winners of the County President’s Cup for 2023.

Jim Tingle / Malcolm Saunders / Rob Franklin, winners of the county President’s Cup 2023.
