I've been speaking to the Chairman of the Forres & District Pool League and we have arranged in principle to play a two way friendly against them.
No dates have been arranged yet but I'd like to know who's up for playing?
Format will be: 10 man teams playing 5 games of doubles and 10 games of singles.
World Rules at the home game and BAPTO Rules in Forres.
I'd like to play the games on consecutive weekends but not absolutely necessary.
Put your name below if you're interested in playing in both games...
Cheers.
PLAYER LIST
Brad Wight
Tony McCallion
Adam Macleod
Gary Simpson
Raymond Mackenzie
Stuart Campbell

No probs, no dates have been arranged so if you all want to let me know weekends that are/aren't convenient and that fit in around the tour then please do so.
Scottish Open has been moved forward to March and it would be good if we could get a good turn out in Aberdeen for that. It was a brilliant weekend last year!
Convenient dates would be the last two weekends in Jan (maybe too early), the last three in Feb (would exclude the Euros players), or anytime in March (except first weekend which is Scottish Open).

On a side note Boddam and Cruden have approached us about a friendly series too. One game at home and one in Peterhead. Something to consider for next year...

Just to confirm that the best time for me would be end of March for this. Possibly sat 26th? Home or away first? Venues?

Nothing arranged yet Adam, we agreed to leave it until the New Year. I'll email Forres over the weekend and see what we can arrange.
Anyone else interested?

Just had a reply back from Forres. Despite their efforts, it seems the players aren't up for it so unfortunately it won't be going ahead.
Perhaps we'll have more luck with an Elgin v Keith friendly seeing as they're looking to convert to WR rules and affiliate with the SEPF.

Brad, did you offer to do a home and away game with 1 5 man team each? This would still be a good comp. 2 10 man teams were always going to be difficult to rustle up...

Post by Brad on Mar 9, 2011 10:11:03 GMT 1
I suggested one 7-10 man team, home and away. Their committee werewellupfor it,sounds like the rest of the players just weren'tthat interested though.

If you look at the tour events there is only one regular player from Forres. Even he may be in doubt now as he was last seen stotterring about a few weeks back in Riley's Inverness !  |
