Club 6th anniversary and double elimination tournament

A big thank you to everyone who came to our club's 6th anniversary practice session, for the contributions to the snack mountain and joining in playing in the informal double elimination tournament. Fun had by all, so we will try to organise something similar in the coming weeks. Disclaimer: we are not responsible for the calorific value of any food consumed!

The results are below.

Highlights:

  • Nat Richardson won a close final against Tom Watmore. In fairness to Tom, he is entitled to a re-match having undefeated through the winners' bracket to get to the final, so has only lost once. Unfortunately, we ran out of time to run the re-match.
  • Mark Wheeler inflicted Nat's only loss of the tournament, but lost to Tom in the following round which meant a re-match with Nat in the Losers' bracket and revenge for Nat.
  • Birthday boy (well, old man) Ian Wu lost twice to Nat. Clearly Nat had not read the instructions that Ian was supposed to win heroically on his XXth birthday.
