John Hedge Takes 2008 British Backgammon Association Jarvis Trophy

by Tournament Director Michael Crane

11 February 2008

The first Swiss of the year got off to a good start with a perfect entry of 32. This meant that the Main and the Consolation would each have 16 entrants… and an easy draw! I was helped at this event (and for, approximately, every alternate one) by Deena Fawcett. She, and Paul Gilbertson’s girlfriend, Tracey, are to share the ‘job’ and it’ll be Tracey’s turn next month. Apart from having two delightful assistants I also now have two delightful poker organisers in the guise of Tony Fawcett and Paul Gilbertson!
