March 2010 Social Tournament

We finally got our first social tournament under way. A good turnout of 20 players of varied levels at Junior and senior ages.

It was a timely practice before the forthcoming Rockhampton Open Tournament. Despite the cyclone warnings, players supported the tournament to have some fun and matchplay. The club appreciates the attendance…Well Done!  Some tough matches were seen on the day.  Winning Results are as follows: Group A Singles – Gary Walmsley ; Runner Up  – Terry Morato.   Group B Singles – Brett Sprunt.Runner Up  – Edward Forster.
