Club Competition accumulative scores for 2000

Worked out as follows:- 1st place on the day 10 points,  2nd 9,  3rd 8, etc, with all those lower than 10th getting 1 point for turning up. OK, good, clear as mud, right then here you are:

Due to the low number of Competitions successfully held (don't you just love British weather?) we have decided to count all points scored during the year, rather than just the 5 best scores, as we normally do.

So, congratulations to Bob Hobbs for winning the trophy (he is the Chairman, so we had to let him win!). Also, congratulations to James Skelton for winning the Novice trophy (this being the first year he has competed).
