LA COUPE DE TREBES (69 joueurs)
FAB held its 18th ‘La Coupe de Trebes’ at the Club de Petanque d’Adelaide yesterday, 20th October.
In 2008 a group of FAB members arranged to play petanque in the small town of Trebes in southern France. Others have since visited the club and the gift of a perpetual trophy has allowed the competition to continue in recognition of that friendship.
The competition comprises two draws of triples teams: Les Hommes et Les Femmes. Each team plays 3 games in a random draw with the winner of each playing in the final.
In the women’s draw 2 teams won all 3 games.
1st Selina, Ha and Haujung with +28
2nd Anne H, Carol and Susan K with +20
In the men’s draw 4 teams won all 3 games.
1st Ned, Van and Nathan with + 24
2nd Craig S, Dom and Rob with +18
3rd Axel, Bill and Ken with +17
4th Paul, Alain and Wayne with +9
The final between Selina, Ha and Haujung (Les Femmes) and Ned, Van and Nathan (Les Hommes) was a thrilling display of Petanque as well as of great camaraderie and fun. In the end Les Hommes defeated Les Femmes 13-9
What a great day it was! The weather was perfect and as always Rada and the team from Club de Petanque d’Adelaide supplied a tasty lunch and great hospitality.
Thanks to Terry for organising the draw and to everyone for making the day such a success!
Reminder that next week’s doubles competition will be held at South Terrace piste while ground works still continue at the Rundle Road piste.
