 We had 28 players tonight.

Morteza was named player of the month for March and was therefore given free entry to tonight's tournament. It was also noted that Nick Macoun came very close, by just 6 points, to claiming the honour.

Mohammad was the drawn jackpot but failed to score.

Angelo accepted the challenge of being the Giantslayer to bring Morteza down.

Koosha was the drawn jackpot but failed to convert.

It was fitting that the Greeks did well tonight as it was Greek National Day.

Tuesday 11th March 2025

 We had 24 players tonight including, for his first visit to our weekly matches, Robby Solomon. 

Uncharacteristically, Robby was bested in his first round by the formidable Mackenzie Little.

Amir was the drawn Jackpot and, although things looked well for him by winning two rounds, Adam dashed his hopes in round 3.
