South Australia declared winner of the Over 60s Pétanque 2010 Interstate Challenge!

Report from Marcel Philogene, Secretary, Petanque Federation Australia - 15 November 2010

PETANQUE FEDERATION AUSTRALIA LTD

Good Morning all,

Thank you!!! Thank you!!!
To all the teams and players who participated at the week end. We beleived that the game of Pétanque was the eventual winner. Great week end of petanque and good fun was had by all present.
The competition was hot and so was the weather.
Congratulations to the winners Victoria, a team mainly composed of players from St Kilda Club,for the "All Ages" group led by Eric Leconte and duly supported by its President, Jean-Claude Dufroux.It was good to see the mother and daughter, Rymah and TatianaTerbah, combination back.
The runners up ,NSW, were not discredited.they only lost on count back.
Overall, a good solid team performances of some of the best players in Australia.Dopn't worry about the wowsers, you guys are amongst the best we have.
West Australia and Queensland were not far behind. This again prove the saying" Winning is not everything", participation is the key"

Some very noticeable improvements were to be   witnessed in the "over 60" group. Tasmania gave the other teams a good fright and a good fight. The team led by Terry Dando proved that petanque is verywell alive in the apple isle.
Looking forward to meet all of you soon on a "piste" in Tassie.

The eventual winners of that group were the guys and girls from South Australia . Led by scholar Dave Ward, it proved once again the saying"if at first you don't succeed, try and try again".
Dave reminded us in his acceptance speech , that the last time Australia beat the Kiwis was when SA represented OZ, and, he expects to do it again next year, most likely  somewhere in Victoria.
Congratulations, South Australia, congratulations to all the team.
The runner up of that group was NSW, perhaps running out of puff at the end. Ah!! well, there's always next year.

The Federation also wishes  to thank the many people who helped make this week end a success, Jackie kelly and John Fleming at the control table. Grant Threadgate did a good job as a first time Tournament Director .The many volunteers from The Eastlakes Club who kept the players well cooled with generous amount of cold water throughout these 2 usual hot November week end. 
Jean Paul and Doreen Boudan could be seen running around ensuring transport , food , which I should add, very well appreciated by all.Luco and Minouche, good work.
Ray Beaumont and Monique Thibault, our Umpires for the Tournament were always there when required.
There is always a danger to miss someone when you start mentioning names. So to those we forgot to mention, a big thank you from the Petanque Federation.
Petanque Federation implemented a revised "format" for these games. The result was 50/50.
Another round of games for the "over 60" group on Saturday evening would have seen the presentation ceremony completed by 5.30pm Sunday night as programmed.
The PFA Board is quite aware that not everything was "Perfect",we have noted our perceived mistakes and look forward to hear your comments on the week end. We will take all steps necessary to improve future National Competitions.

There is still a lot to do, so until next we meet regards
Marcel Philogene
