Burnside Sixes
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
|
|
Another successfully run tournament is over. The winners have been found and Gavin Lea with his team have collected the first prize cheque. He has been slowly moving up the field with three second placings until he found the winning formulae this year. Mort did an mazing job organising the field and a special thanks goes to Mort for arranging the Burnside Bomber team. Even though they finished 22 out of 22 they had three memorable victories over the weekend. The atmosphere was friendly but at the same time competitive. Everyone voiced their satisfaction with a well run tournament.
