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. |

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. :) |

Round 14 results are posted,
and the
player stats are updated.
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. |
