Dear Tabletenniser’s,

   On a cold, windy rainy night 77 people braved the elements to compete in the BTTC Round Robin

Bunny Lee wins the top division on  games won tie-break over Johnny Huang , both players achieving a 4-1 result.

In Division two Channing Chan wins on heads-up tie –break over the up and coming junior Pranav Gopal.,both players with a 4-1 result. Pranav has made quite a leap in rating over the past few months…Congrats...

        Remember next week Feb 1 the new fees begin Adults $5 and juniors 16 or under $3.

 

I really wanted to remind all of you that I do need more assistance at the desk checking in people, collecting money, getting people to sign waivers, assess  newcomers ratings for appropriate division play and to answer all of the questions people always need answered.… I’m currently doing most of this myself for the most part ,although I get a few helpers once in a while (which I appreciate greatly appreciate ) I’m also organizing and executing the tourney  with over 75 participants in a timely manner  and it requires some concentration…I want to warm-up and enjoy my participation in the tourney too.  I’m really too swamped to do this myself, Please people step-up and offer to help!
