President Guy Burns is away and returns early 2018.
We welcome Alan Winffield to the weekly Newsletter helm.
Alan begins:

With the Penultimate round of the FreeBird tournament completed on Tuesday 22nd August, Alan Winfield won all four of his games to increase his lead to two points. With four games left only David Paul can catch him. See Top 3 standings below. Full Tournament Chart will be on the Notice Board on Tuesday.
With only Four games left, members are encouraged to attend to ensure sufficient numbers are present to complete the round.
This coming Tuesday we are going to trial opening at 7.00pm so that the juniors (we have 3!!!) can have some game time to not only have friendly games with themselves but also to provide them with some tuition to help them develop.
Should any general member wish to come in a little earlier please feel free to drop in.
