The Final Countdown....!!
Well, this Blog hasn't been used as much as I'd maybe hoped and who knows if anyone will check back in the next week to read this before the event actually goes ahead, but never mind!!
We're now in the final run-up to the competition and final plans will be made tomorrow (Tuesday 1st) to arrange, with the usual military precision, the preparation of the venue on the afternoon of Friday 4th prior to the arrival of the teams in Abergavnny in the evening. Play itself begins at 9.30am on Saturday 5th and all signs are that the event should be a success....
Posters and flyers have been printed and distributed around Abergavenny itself and also in neighbouring towns. These advertise the event to the public, highlighting free entry and listing the on-site attractions (aside from watching the boule of course!). This advertising, and the fact that the terrain is in the main public park should mean that there will be a good crowd throughout the day and hopefully some new convertees to the sport of pétanque!
We wish all players, officials and supporters travelling to Abergavenny for the event a safe journey and we look forward to welcoming you to our home from this Friday!
