Posted by Pmcook1 on December 1, 2014 at 8:00 AM Comments comments (2)

The 2014/2015 county triples were held at Ware Drill Hall yesterday (Sunday 30-11-2014). Twenty Two teams were competing for the title and it was Ian Carter, Jonathon Carter and David Danby of Braughing who took the title by defeating Jackie Harden, Roy Harden & Annette Luedtke (winners of the fours) of Little Hadham in an entertaining final. 


Congratulations to Ian, Jonathon and David. A deserved victory and a first county title for Ian & Jonathon. David may have already been or may now have joined the select group (Craig Hearn, Mick Hearn, Pete Cook & Neil Tuckey) of winning all four county titles. Can anybody confirm who were the triples winners from Braughing in 1996 and the fours winners in 2007/2008?

County Season Performance

The county season performance sheet has now been updated. If you would like to see who has gained our points this season then go to


Results & Stats > County Season Performance


Ian Carter is the early pace setter on 21 points. Jason Ellis playing his first season for us is in second place on 20. The group is tightly packed behind with 6 players just two points behind on 19. As far down as 17th place is just 6 points off the top.


This is a clear indication that the whole team has performed well this season and we have not just been relying on one or two teams to pick up points for us. Let's hope that this continues throughout the season
