March 2018 Newsletter

POOL SECTION
The Pool Section recently held their A G M recently which was combined with their
“Open Day” and as a result there was a good turnout. A new committee was elected
and welcomed on board and a number of Notices of Motions were presented and
passed unanimously.
The 2018 Interclub season is due to start on Tuesday 21st March for Premier and 1 st
division players and on Wednesday 22nd March for 2 nd and 3rd division players. We
have 5 teams competing in the Inter-club competition this year and the committee
wishes teams and players all the best for the 2018 season. The Richmond Club Pool
Section will also be playing their ‘home games’ and ‘in-house tournaments’ out of
Woolston this year too and we would like to welcome them to the Club and wish them
all the best too. There will be 4 teams using the tables on Tuesday nights and 6 teams
on Wednesday nights. This means that there will be 32 players plus team reserves and
supporters at the Club on Tuesday nights and 48 players plus reserves and supporters
on Wednesday nights. Darryl from On Cue will be installing a new table to cater for the
number of teams and players who will be playing out of Woolston and we would like
to thank Darryl and On Cue for their continued support of the Club.
This year Woolston will be hosting 4 major tournaments with players coming to Woolston
from other Clubs around the area.
Those tournaments are;-
The Canterbury 8 Ball B Grade Singles tournament on 3 - 4 March in the Sports Bar
The Geraldine Early Bird All Grade singles tournament on 10 – 11 March in the Sports
Bar
The Canterbury 8 Ball Pairs tournament on 28 – 29 July in the Sports Bar and the
The Ian Davison Ladies Drawn Pairs tournament on 30 June – 1 July in the Mezzanine
area
There will also be 22 in-house tournaments from Woolston and Richmond Pool Sections
being played at the Club on various Saturdays and Sundays as well.
2018 is going to be a busy year for the Club and the Pool Section would like to thank
Club Management for their support and would also like to prematurely thank the Duty
managers and bar staff for their service. Finally to all teams and players we wish you a
happy and successful year.
