Results

There was a great variety in the field this year as we had travellers from France, Scotland and Belfast in addition to the usual Cork and Dublin participants. Richard Aynsley was the playing umpire and organiser.

This was a 2-day, 4-round, 2-list 400AP themed event using BHGS 0-32 scoring as practice for the upcoming IWF Individual World Championships in Rome. Everyone had a great time and the games all proceeded smoothly. Unfortunately we had to move building on the 2nd day of play due to a gas-leak in the original venue. Thanks to everyone for helping without complaint and making sure that we only started 45 minutes late.
