2015 Arculli Pairs – Duffy and Farrell win!
16 teams turned out at Essex County LBC on May 30-31 2015 for the Skip Arculli pairs. The tournament came to an abrupt halt when the weather turned to heavy thundershowers on Sunday afternoon. Unfortunately we were unable to complete the final round of play so the event was decided by the results from the first 4 rounds.
There were 3 teams with a 4-0 record which required plus points ( max 9 per game ) and ends won to determine the winners.
This was the first time in the last 20 years that we have had to resort to tie breakers to determine the results of an event.
