Crowd was good this afternoon just got back before trekking on will write a summary tomorrow with some views from the table when back st home but over all very enjoyable better than last year & event city for sure

[foggs3355]

I think next year the format needs looking at it far to short I think there is time day 1 all men’s best of 11

I would play it best of 11 11 13 17 19

It definitely something to build of on half decent crowd if they get tickets on sale by May next year expect better turnout
