THE CLUB TRIPLES HAS NOW CONCLUDED. THANK YOU TO ALL THE PARTICIPANTS.

How it works:

• The Club Triples Championship competition is only open to members of Newtongrange Petanque Club.
• It will be played over the weekend of 13th/14th April 2024. Registration will be 09:30 - 09:45, with games commencing at 10:00.
• Competition format: 11 teams entered, so the group stage is a group of 6 and a group of 5. The top 4 teams from each group will progress to the quarter-finals, taking place on the Sunday - same start times.
• Rankings will be based on;
  a) Number of points (3 for a win, 1 for a draw), then
  b) Points difference (PD), then
  c) Number of points (F)
  If still tied, then the result of the tied teams’ match will decide.
• Teams will be comprised of 3 players. The Committee may make amendments to the regulations, which they deem necessary to ensure the smooth running of the competition.
• There is a £2 per player entry fee into the competition, and teams must register with the match secretary.
• Teams are free to name themselves as they see fit - however, must be accepted by the match secretary.
• Teams must inform the match secretary of any player changes 48 hours before the competition begins.
• The format for the competition will follow the SPA timed rules (section 9), but with the exception of timed game play, which will be 40 minutes, plus one end. Note: The final will not be timed and no live strings.
• Players should ensure that the position of the jack is marked at all times.
• A trophy will be awarded to the winners.
• The results of the competition and holder of the trophy shall be recorded and kept by the club/match secretary.
