2019/2020 Internal Competition Update

By Competitions, News No Comments

Due to Covid-19 interrupting the season mid flow our final competition of last season was cancelled meaning that we only managed four of the planned five internal competitions.

After some deliberation on whether to roll the 2019/20 competition league into the current season we have decided that the 2019/20 season will be closed and the 2020/2021 league will consist of the three competitions as described in the Programme.

So I would like to announce that congratulations go to Dave Boam who in 2019/2020 topped the leader board with the highest accumulated score overall.

We would like to thank Dave for his continued, consistently very high quality contributions to both our internal competitions and external competitions – we value this greatly.
