We will be playing Lincoln style games.

Three more rounds follow where your opponents will be your neighbours in the standings at that point so don’t worry if you have a tough start. At the end of the three rounds our top two will face off in the final. Remember the aim is to have fun and there will be plenty of prizes on offer that anyone could take home.
