MANCHESTER UNITY TRIPLES LEAGUE<br />
The name <strong>of</strong> the League comes from The Oddfellows Society, as they are the<br />
sponsors. The League operates across county borders with <strong>Berkshire</strong> and<br />
Oxfordshire involved, and currently consists <strong>of</strong> Burghfield, Goring, Harwell,<br />
Henley, Hurst, Palmer Park, Pangbourne, Peppard, Shiplake and the University <strong>of</strong><br />
Reading.<br />
Matches normally consist <strong>of</strong> 5 mixed triples (except at Goring where the green only allows<br />
for 3 rinks).<br />
Two points are awarded for each winning rink, and two points for the winning overall score,<br />
giving a total <strong>of</strong> twelve points per match.<br />
When played at Goring three points are awarded for each winning rink and 3 points for the<br />
overall winning score.<br />
Since the year 2000, there has also been an additional “Officers” friendly competition for the<br />
“Millenium Cup”.<br />
Each club provides a triple and teams are created on the basis (loosely) <strong>of</strong> North <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Thames versus South.<br />
The rink with the highest winning margin on the winning team collects the trophy.<br />
