Norfolk v Suffolk Coastal …. The return…
So Norfolk are seeking revenge for last years defeat in the inaugaural match. After much back and forth we have finally agreed a date of 29th September – the format will be the same as last year, a mixture of doubles and triples in a Ryder Cup format, the venue will be Meadlands and the competition is open initially to SCR licence holders, if we do not achieve a full compliment of 24 we will then open to anyone. It will be £5 per person, food will be available at Meadlands, we will confirm nearer the time exactly what but at this stage please simply register interest via myself at [email protected], we will set up registration on the website shortly and I will also advertise there today….

Winter Woolies Triples Tournament
Winter Woolies Open Triples
Sunday 21st January 2024
Flint Hall, Creeting St Peter, near Needham Market
At our new venue of Flint Hall, near Needham Market, we are proposing an Open Triples event this coming January.
It will be a Triples Event, with your entry fee being inclusive of freshly baked pizza, teas and coffees. If you have any special dietary requirements, you need to let us know BEFORE the event.
There are on-site toilets and kitchen facility. A 100-person covered seating area, patio heaters, pizza oven and “bar area” available. Bring your own alcohol if you want to.
This event will be limited to a maximum of 12 triples teams (this is NOT a melee event, so it’s up to you to make your own triples teams). Each triples will get to play 4 games over a 5-round format. The games will be 45 minutes long plus one extra end. Final positions will be determined by wins.
The majority of your entry fee will then be paid to Flint Hall for the cost of food and drinks, with whatever we have left to be used towards prizes. Spot prizes will be awarded on the day for achieving certain mystery achievements.
To register your interest in receiving an official invite to this event, please either respond to this post or email me directly at [email protected].
First come, first served based upon the date and time of your registering of interest.
To avoid any confusion, if you are registering your interest, please let me know who your other two players are, so that I don’t double-count.
NOTE…this is an absolutely new piste and is only a few months old, there are some hard areas and some soft areas as would be expected from a piste this young. So you know what to expect……
