🏆 ELPC NEWS: A FEW WEEKS OF SUCCESS ON THE PISTES! 🏆
It’s been another busy and successful few weeks for our members at East Lothian Pétanque Club, with Scottish representation, podium finishes and plenty of competitive pétanque!
🇸🇨 SCOTLAND ARE CHALLENGE CUP WINNERS! 🇸🇨
On 5–6 September, two of our members, Colin and Ann Rowan, were part of the Scotland squad representing their country in the Challenge Cup at the Inter Regional Competitions hosted by Pétanque England.
And what a result! 🏆 Scotland came home as winners!
A fantastic achievement and one we're delighted to celebrate with Colin and Ann. 👏
🏅 SPA LADIES & MEN'S TRIPLES – MACDUFF
Last weekend saw seven ELPC members travel to Macduff for the SPA Ladies and Men's Triples Championships, with some excellent results.
🌸 Ladies Triples Our very own Hilda Invararity, playing alongside Mags Montgomery (Inverleith) and Sue MacAuley (Moffat), finished as runners-up in the Ladies event! 🥈
A brilliant achievement and congratulations to the team!
💪 Men's Triples Not to be outdone, Sunday brought further success.
Colin Rowan, playing with Allan Rankin (Ayr) and Ed Strachan (Perth), secured an impressive 3rd place finish. 🥉
And our own Matthew Dickie, alongside Quentin Renau and Mike Whelan (both Inverleith), went one step further, finishing runners-up in the Men's event! 🥈
Congratulations to everyone involved! 👏
🎯 ELPC MEMBERS AT DALKEITH
Meanwhile, John and Yvonne Robertson, along with George McIntyre, represented ELPC at Dalkeith in the AAR Ferguson Invitation Cup.
Although fine margins and some decisions that didn't go their way made things challenging, the team enjoyed a great day of pétanque and camaraderie.
That's what it's all about! 😊
🏆 SUMMER LEAGUE FINALE!
This weekend brings the summer league to a close, with ELPC travelling away to play Inverleith.
With the league win already secured, our team will be looking to finish the season in style and maintain their unbeaten record throughout the league! 💪🔥
A fantastic season so far, and we wish the team all the best for the final match!
Come on ELPC! 🟢⚪🏆
