Grand Prix Secretary Report
2008 - 2009 - Geoff Gammon
After the bumper
season of last year it was inevitable that the only way was down and
this was indeed the case. With the number of participating events
down by 25% the contributions from those events is correspondingly
lower and totals £274.00. I have been able to supplement this from
the small reserves in the a/c and the Prize Fund stands at £ 300.00
which I believe is a realistic amount to support 14 prizes.
Nine events
subscribed to the Grand Prix this year and of those four were League
based and five were Club based and my thanks to the organizers, both
for running the events and for including them in the Grand Prix.
Over the year 110
League members from 20 clubs and schools (this is up from 18 in
07/08) competed in the nine events on 258 occasions scoring a total
of 4,563 Grand Prix points. Seven players scored 100 points or more.

amended appropriately when the new gradings become active.
