Prestwick 2012

[David G Congalton]

Congress website updated with all results and photo's. For those who have won a prize but were unable to stay for the prize-giving cheques will be posted out this weekend.

Thanks to everyone who took part and all those involved in organising and officiating. I hope everybody enjoyed the weekend.

The provisional date for the 2013 congress is the late May Bank Holiday weekend, Friday May 24th to Sunday May 26th. I have already had preliminary discussions with the airport and the Parkstone Hotel and am awaiting official confirmation that the airport is available on the preferred dates. The Parkstone has been provisionally booked for the Saturday night when I hope to hold a similar event to this year.

Any titled players who fancy taking on 20 or so players next year at Prestwick, possibly outside if the weather is fine, please contact me as soon as possible. My details can be found here

I also intend to build on the Junior Saturday event we held this year and kids not ready for weekend events will have the opportunity to be part of the weekend.
