Middle Bisquers 2019

8-9 June 2019, Knightswood

Six players with a handicap range between 4 and 12 took part in this year's Middle Bisquers in Glasgow. Expecting the worst of weather on the Saturday we were delighted to experience a warm sultry day with only a brief 20 minute shower.  The pleasant weather continued into the Sunday with a bright warm day.  Throughout the weekend the lawns were even paced and the hoops more forgiving than very tight.

Using an all-play-all block results generally followed handicap levels with the exception of Bill Strachan's +19 win over Rosemary Saunders Robertson. Well done Bill!  New Glasgow boy Calum Worsley (handicap 10) playing his first tournament in Scotland managed one win.  We look forward to a fast-improving Calum on the Scottish scene.  Your correspondent won all of his games in time but was most pressed by the higher handicap players (why I ask?) and therefore won this year's event.

Given the reasonable and consistent condition of the lawns and offerings such as chocolate biscuits and strawberries  we look forward to more participants next year.
