Alex H has reclaimed the top spot on the Singles Ladder, beating Kaye S 13 to 9. Steve H also enters the top 3, after beating Tom R 13 to 7.

A reminder to members, that membership fees for 2023 (£20) are due by 28/02/2023. If you have not yet paid, then details can be found in the NPC WhatsApp group.

The first batch of membership cards have been printed off, for those who have paid their 2023 membership fee. Hope to be able to distribute them on Sunday.

Steve H is asking for names for the Club Triples League. Entry fee of £2 per player - this will go towards a winners trophy.

We have a new leader of the ladder, in the form of Kaye S. She challenged and won against top-of-the-tree Tommy R.

It had to happen eventually. Alex H has been knocked off the top of the Singles Ladder by Tommy R. Tommy was in 2nd place, but winning a super-challenge from Mary T means that he climbs one place, into 1st place.

Well the triples league has finally finished! The last match saw The Panthers pip The Belles 9 - 8, to finish fourth, with The Belles staying bottom of the table.

Well, the winners of the triples league have been confirmed as GAS - congratulations to Stevie, Sandy and Gary. Meanwhile, second place is still up for grabs, with 3 teams able to secure it (mathematically speaking).

Saturday 28th saw us head to Penicuik, to play some matches against a couple of other clubs. After the first round of matches, we were trailing 3 - 1.

It turned out a nice mild day for a January. This brought out a sense of competition in people, with no less than 5 singles ladder matches, and one league game taking place.
