Season 35 Report
After a long break of eight months, Season 35 finally got underway on Friday 6th January 2023 and ran for 12 weeks, the regular season finishing on Friday 7th April. This gave the competition 24 tournaments with only Kerry and Nigel hosting.
The geographical format was retained but the UK team was split into three – England North, England Midlands and England South – to try and even out the teams. England South, containing Nigel, Shane and newcomer Jani, took the team title comfortably on 126 points with mainly Nigel and Shane scoring for the team. Runners-up were the England Midlands team consisting of family members Carl, Chele and Kerry. They finished on 102 points.
Third were Rest of the World on 69, with the highest of the American teams (America Central) fourth on 56. Then came America Mountain & Pacific (37), England North (25), Europe (24) and America Eastern (20). In hindsight, the American teams could well have been merged but the attendance was expected to be higher, with previous regulars Lisa and Jason not playing.
Nigel (ENDK.) captured the Individual championship for the ninth time with 132 points (4 overall tournament wins and 4 shared) and Shane (pool_for_fun2020) finished runners-up for the second season in succession on 115 points, pipping Kerry (112) who has been second most of the season. Carl (goldenpooler) was fourth with 96 points, Michelle (zgal54) 5th on 94 points and Roxey (roxeymusic1) 6th on 78 points. In her first season, Chele (saucy.chele) finished 7th on 78 points.
Attendance-wise, 23 players took part in total, three down on the previous season. The play-off format was changed to reward the regular scorers – 1st to 4th played for Gold, 5th to 8th played for Silver and 9th and below of those with 40 points minimum played for Bronze. In the play-offs held on Friday 14th April, lack of numbers resulted in a decision being made to run them over one tournament which was reduced to five rounds. Kerry, Nigel and Shane tied on 3-2 and shared the Gold, whilst Chele, Jim and Michelle took the Silver on 2-3. In Bronze, Chris won it thanks to his 5-0 play-off tournament win.
Congratulations to the winners and a big thank you to everyone who played.
