With the weather a lot calmer this week we have finally managed to get the Wednesday Cup and Plate underway. It's 9.30pm and we have the first four results in, all 4-0, to add to last week's result.
Heart of Oak B v Jubilee Club played 8 January.
8 January - We kick off the 2025 Wednesday night action with the Cup & Plate, assuming the weather allows things to proceed.
17.30pm - With the weather conditions meaning we were losing matches at quite a rate we have decided to postpone everthing tonight until next Wednesday. All other fixtures this season will move on one week to accommodate this.
Heart of Oak B v Jubilee Club played 8 January.
Sun 15 December - Tonight is the inaugural Dave Layfield Memorial Shield round.
The format for tonight is 8 x singles (all single frame) followed by 5 x Scotch Doubles ( all single frame). No player can play more than 2 frames of singles / 3 frames of doubles. Conferring to be kept to a minimum in the Scotch Doubles.
The playing format is as follows:
Lag for 1st break then alternate breaks there after.
Singles - both sides naming players 1 to 4 blind, and therefore filling in frames one to
eight on the sheet. Away order changes to 3, 4, 1, 2 for second set of singles.
Singles players need to remain in position eg. number 1, 2, 3, or 4.
Reserves can be brought into second 4 singles if required.
After the singles each Captain then decides on their doubles for the first 4 frames of
doubles. i.e. name your first 2 doubles pairings then same pairings switched for second 2
sets of pairs (reserve players permitted, can bring reserve players in to games sd3 and sd4
if required)
So Doubles is
Home team: Sd1 Sd2 & Sd3 Sd4 stay the same.
Away team: Sd1 Sd2
swap Sd3 Sd4
i.e. SD1 V SD1 sd game 1
SD2 V SD2 sd game 2
SD1 V SD2 sd game 3
SD2 V SD1
sd game 4
5th doubles if required teams nominate players.
