Ladies’ Social
The 2020 Cullen Shield series finally got under way on Thursday evening 27th August after a smoky aborted start the previous week. Swift electrical repairs ensured that all was well for the 6pm pizzas and 6.30 start.
Sides from Maroochydore, Palmwoods, Woombye, Mooloolaba, Kawana, Glasshouse, Coolum and Nambour participated this year with numbers limited due to covid 19 restrictions. Each side consists of two teams of four players. The sides were randomly assigned positions in the red and blue sections.
The competition consists of five round robin weeks, then a finals evening in which all sides participate. The points accumulated during the round robin games determine the final ladder position of the sides in the red and blue sections. On the finals night, the top side in the red section plays against the top side in the blue section to decide first and second overall placings. All the other sides in the red section play their opposite numbers in the blue section to battle for third and fourth places.
While the finals placings are based on the combined side scores, each night prizes are awarded to the winning and runner-up teams of four players.
