Park Petanque Triples Tournament

On 11th April 2015, Park Petanque Club organised its annual Triples tournament.
12 players registered for the tournament and the format of the games was decided as follows:
4 teams of 3 players. We had one guest who registered from Cabinteely park team, and Jim was very welcome on the day.
As there were different levels of ability, it had been decided that a seeding and a draw of teams would be done on the day.
Pots were divided as follows:
Pot 1: Brian, Naazim, Vincent, Alain
Pot 2: Anne, Michael, Daniel, Laetitia
Pot 3: Jim, Keith, Davina, Niall.
Following the draws, the following teams were formed:

| PPC 1 | Brian | Anne | Jim |
| PPC 2 | Naazim | Daniel | Keith |
| PPC 3 | Vincent | Laetitia | Davina |
| PPC 4 | Alain | Michael | Niall |
Format of the tournament would be:
Teams play a round robin against each other. This would mean a total of 3 games. At the end of the 3 games, the team leading the table would be the winner.
It was a sunny day but quite windy and cold. Hail and rain made an appearance in the latter stages of the day.
It was a competition of high standard with some great play. Teams were playing for the perpetual trophy and a winner's medal.
