The Great Boat Race has started

From the Tauranga boat club.....

The starting gun has fired and the race is underway ! 

Tauranga has found its foils and is at the 54.23% mark with Cambridge Dragging its anchor and trailing slightly behind at the 51.19% Mark.

A slight change to the way this is calculated this year.  We are now using the X Club handicap system which takes into account the strength of the partnership, the opposition and the field. We average the handicap scores for each club and use that as the total for the club.

Both clubs are playing the same boards at the same time.  If you wish to view the X Club results, click on results/x-club results. If you click on the heading that says "Club" this will sort the results by club.

The club with the best total over 3 sessions will win the Club trophy, kindly donated by Michael Neels.  There will also be a prize for the best Pair overall and the best pair in each club.  After Round One the leading pairs are:

Helen Rose & Marie DavisCambridge68.08%
