The La Perla Round Robin
La Perla 3rd
February 2013
This took place
in rather more wind than was thought. Nevertheless there were 26 participants
including guests of members. Each were assigned to be either “stayers” or
“swappers” and assigned within 3 groups of 4 pairs.
According to
Luigi, who has kindly arranged the trophy La Perla and the winners’ vouchers
for a number of years, this was top turnout compared to earlier times.
From the 3
groups the following emerged as top of the respective groups:
·
Group 1 (Rosso) Marie Perry
(swapper) with 13 points; Charl Dreyer (stayer) with 15 points
·
Group 2 (Bianco) Gavin Smith
(swapper) with 16 points; Russel Dor (stayer) with 19 points
·
Group 3 (Verde) Giulio Marabini
(swapper) with 18 points; Frans van Pallander (stayer) with 14 points
The following
were very close in their groups: Roger Perry (stayer) with 14 points, Vanessa
September (swapper) with 15 points and Shiraz (swapper) with 17 points. His
partner let him down.
The two top
swappers and two top stayers played out the final with victory going to Russel
Dor (9 points), followed by Giulio Marabini (7 points, Charl Dreyer (5 points)
and Gavin Smith (3 points).
Thanks again go
to Luigi during this difficult time; to Marianne who organised the tea, to Nick
and Charl for arranging the draw and preparing the score sheets, enabling play
to commence promptly. Also thanks to Neville for collecting the entrance
payments. (posted by
