Round 9 results are in the pipeline.  Unfortunately my server lost a drive and I had to replace, rebuild, restore and now I have ulcers and a bald spot.  Also, because of this I am missing a few results emails that I couldn't recover.  Could those with missing results, please resend the email so I can complete the round 9 results.

We hope you all had a really fantastic safe and happy Easter weekend and didn't eat too much chocolate

We hope you all had a safe and happy festive season, and you are ready to get back into the swing.
The new fixture and team list is ready to print, so check it out on the Fixtures and Forms page.
It would be really helpful if you could let Brian Elton (M&P coordinator) know who the team contact and captain are.
The new season will be starting on the week commencing 06 February 2011 and you will need to make sure you
two team members at the pre-season meeting on Thursday 02 February.  The meeting as usual will be at Knox
 at 7:30pm.  All teams will get 50 points added to their total for round 1 for the first two players who attend the
meeting.
If you haven't had an email from esraresults yet, it means we don't have your correct email address.  So if you want to
be kept up to date, send esraresults@yahoo.com.au a message and we will add you to the list.  Many thanks to those
who have already sent in updated and new email addresses.  It really helps.
OK, get out there and get some practice and get ready to play and have some fun.
All the best from your committee.

Thanks to all and congratulations to all who played.  Many thanks to the workers who made it a great event.
Remember that next season teams need to be arranged, so let me know, if you haven't already.

Full results for the finals are viewable now.

The ESRA Website address is back.  If you have changed your shortcuts or bookmarks to the e-esra.yi.org address, that will
still work.  As will www.e-esra.net and www.e-esra.com.  This was caused by me making changes and then not checking.  But all is good now.  Thanks for your patience.
Regards, Brian
See you all at the finals tonight.  Don't forget to bring your camera and a happy disposition. :)

Our thoughts go out to Daniel Tanner at the Knox Park venue.  Last Wednesday the place was awash
after the big storm.  And then Thursday they had an electrical fire.
I believe that repair work should commence next week and power should be restored.  Hopefully the
venue will be back in full swing again shortly.
