I am considering running Friday night flyers in the Chieftain, Inverness every 2nd Friday to begin with. These flyers would be played on quality tables to blackball rules. I know some guys go throuLgh to shooters in Aberdeen but wondered if folk would be interested in this which is a bit closer to home. Personally, it's the tables and practice that I am interested in but there will be a bit of cash to play for too!
The flyers would be £5 to enter, double elimination format (so a minimum of 2 matches for your fiver), races to four all the way through. Hopefully the Chieftain will bung something into the pot and if successful maybe a bit more.
Anyone interested in this?
I am away through I Thursday so if I feel this is something worth doing then I can start the ball rolling then...

Ha ha aye! The lad I spoke to when I dropped the draw sheet off said food would be provided. Only two venues failed to provide food last year and I had a few complaints about it so they didn't get singles matches this year..... duly noted!
Also had three complaints about the state of the Caber table on Wed. Like I said to the guys, if no one tells me during the season that tables are sub standard, I can't do anything about it. If I'd have known I could have went and spoke to the Caber and they'd almost certainly have sorted it out.

Was in the chieftain last night. Tables are awesome. They can be hired for £4 per hour.
Got absolutely trounced by one of the top players up there. Oh to play on those level, bucket tables week in week out lol!

Brad,
Woody and I complained about the caber table after our doubles match there last year. It was appalling then and would appear nothing has changed. So you did know about that one I'm afraid...
Cheers,
Adam.

Aye I knew about last year but was told the table was sorted for the start of this season. Maybe it just hasn't been levelled since then and it's been mistreated/not cared for over the course of the season?

Brad,
I played tony in our singles final at the caber last year and was there again this year and nothing has changed. The roll on the table is exactly the same and i mean it is ridiculous. I would definately suggest dropping it as a venue for next year unless it can be levelled. It was a shame becuase it spoilt it for everyone there.
