ECats Week |
All the club's sessions this week were raising money for McMillan and MIND. I am delighted to say we raised a very handy £324 - so well done and thank you to all who took part.
The highest finishers nationally were Brian Smith and John Nicholls (Monday), Sarah Bullock and Ken Orford (Tuesday), Alan Wearmouth and Martyn Harris (Thursday). A very honourable mention to Robin Rose and John McLachlan who also finished in the top 25 nationally on Tuesday. We hope everyone enjoyed it.

Teams Update |
We are changing when club teams evenings are played. We are reverting to the pre-Covid system of having a teams night on Mondays. They will be held on the third Monday of alternate months starting on 15th April.
Until then the Thursday teams will still be held. From April onward, Thursday sessions will be entirely BBO. We hope this will encourage more players to play on teams evenings.

More Tuition for 2024 |
By popular demand we are re-commencing tuition sessions in the new year.
On Thursday morning at 9.30 we will provide 30 minutes tuition on a selected topic followed by 12 boards of supervised play.
Once a month on the fourth Tuesday we will start at 6.40 with 20 minutes tuition followed by 18 boards as at present.
We look forward to seeing as many of you as possible in the new year
