Twickenham Prep Results

 

The 6th girls' coaching and tournament event took place on the 14th May at Twickenham Prep School. 29 girls played in all. They were organised into 7 teams of 4 players.

There were 5 rounds, 6 coaching sessions and a lunchtime quiz (which added to each players' score). Personal scores are out of 18 (3 points for a win, 2 for a draw, 1 for a win. 3 points were available from the lunchtime quiz). Team scores are out of a possible 72.

The coaches were again spectacular. I would like to extend my thanks to Ruth Sheldon and Heather Lang for making the day run so smoothly. I would also like to thank the school, staff and all the parents who helped, especially Mr. Malam, without whose help the day would not have been possible.

Players could not win more than one prize, which were presented in the following order of priority: age group, board and team.
