Hope everyone had a great Christmas and best wishes for 2012.
Congratulations to Steve Ng (K.G. 'A') for a superb performance in the Xmas Shootout at Essex road on 29th December.

Many thanks to Bill Bavister and his team of helpers for providing a very enjoyable evening, with a great turnout of 24 players, all looking to work off some of those Christmas mince pies!

View from the Web
November 5th, 2011

This season is already hotting up and there are many good things to note from the matches played so far. Firstly it's great to see some new names performing well, plus the welcome rteturn of a few names returning to BDTTL after a break. Also, thanks to everyone for making the effort to add comments to the scorecards as well as sending out match details so promptly. It really does help the webmaster keep everything as up to date as possible. In Div 1 it looks like St Peters A are still the team to beat but there are plenty of players out there who I think can put up a strong challenge.  In Div 2 Minitec B have made a fast start, but it looks like an experienced AWE 'A' are likely to provide stern opposition. In the newly formed Div 3, Aldworth and Basingstoke Hindu Society are the front runners, although I'm hearing great reports of some of the newcomers to BDTTL, particularly the juniors.
The Averages will be on-line after the completion of Week 8, so if you could all make an extra special effort this week to send me through results, it would be very much appreciated.

Handicap Singles Competition
October 30th, 2011

Message from Patrick Garlick:
We will be holding a handicap singles competition at Essex Road (both rooms) on Wednesday 16th November starting at 7:30pm open to all league members and others if I am notified prior to the night. There is no need to enter beforehand. Players can just turn up on the night but must be present by 7:15pm. After this time all players will be put into groups and it might not be possible to squeeze in any late entries. The entry fee (paid on the night) will be £3 and refreshments will be provided. Essex Road will be open from 7pm for knocking up. These competitions have been very well attended over the past few years so expect plenty of games against many different players, most of whom will be from different divisions.
 
  • All players will be divided into 4 groups at the start of the night and each group will be played on 1 table (2 tables in each room).
  • Every player will receive a number of "base points" based on how they compare to everybody in their group. Obviously if you are in a group with lots of players better than you then you will receive a lot more base points.
  • Everybody in that group will play each other 1 game up to 21 from "love-all" and all points gained throughout all your matches in the group will be added to your base points to give you a total score. There are no deuces so a match at 20-20 will finish 21-20.
  • The top 2 players from each group will go through to the Quarter finals where a random draw and a similar format will progress to the final. In the event of a tie for group positions, all tied players will progress to the knockout round and preliminary matches will be played.
  • Trophies will be awarded to the winner and runner up
 
Although it is not necessary to enter beforehand it would be a great help if you could let me know if you intend to enter just so that I can prepare for a general number of entries

Scorecard challenge!
October 19th, 2011

Here's a challenge for you all! Please try and make at least ONE comment on every match scorecard; facts, details, humour, interest, ridiculous....absolutely anything goes! It will help to make the job of Press Officer Brenda Bavister just a little bit easier if she has got something to write about other than just scores.

Also, it would be really helpful if a bit more care could be taken when completing the scorecards. In particular; clear writing of player names and making sure doubles players names are included.

VERY MANY THANKS!

RAF Odiham withdrawn from the 1st Division
October 10th, 2011

Message from Registration Secretary, Ron Powell:
Please note that RAF Odiham has had to withdraw their team in the 1st division this season. It is a sad loss to the league, as they were a very good sporting side. It was unfortunate but unavoidable with the situation at the Base at present.
Please make a note of the fixture list as the fixture will now become a bye.
One or two of their remaining players are still interested in playing in the 1st Division
with another team, and in particular Simon Clark, and Andrew Pipe.
If any team is interested please contact them or let me know.
