Hi folks, welcome back after the break. Series 2 for the Division grades start this coming week but meanwhile the Premier grade began again and here is the latest: Winter Interclub 30 July.
(Division results from Series 1 are still in this too.)
Hi folks, here are the Joola Series 1 Division grade completed results (and Premier up until last week): Winter Interclub 2-3 July (updated July 17)
Congratulations to:
Division 1 Series 1 winners: Waterloo Wasps (Sean Hanson 100%, Win Nguyen 95%, Scott Higham 83%)
Division 1 Series 1 runners-ups: Empire Elders (Chris Williams 81%, Tony Rutledge 78%, Bruce Connolly 67%)
Division 2 Series 1 winners: Waterloo Whales (Martin Xiong 94%, Callum Gates 83%, Ellen Xiong 50%, )

Division 3 Series 1 runners-ups: Waterloo Wapitis (Dean McNicholl 91%, Chris Sutton 71%, Ian Thomas 62%)
For Premier, Belmont Bang is ahead of Titan and we’re about half way through the Premier competition.
Series 2 for the Division (and Junior) grades starts August 6/7 but grade champs are tonight.
Remember that for the Division grades (1/2/3) Series 1 is now complete (results to be posted up) but next week (July 9/10 Tues/Wed) will be the Grade Championships event (one event per grade on the normal night for each grade). This is a non-team ‘tournament-style’ event to see who can be No. 1 in their division so be sure to come along. The format usually starts with several round-robins with the top 1 or 2 going through to the knock-out rounds (entries on the night will determine the exact format).
Division 1 and 3 folks are on Wednesday, Division 2 on Tuesday. You can play in the grade you are playing in and you may also play in a higher division should you wish!
The Grade Champs are a good practice for the TTW Yasaka Open coming up: here – July 13/14
Following the grade champs are 2 weeks off (the mid-year holidays are on) before Series 2 starts, after that (Aug 6/7) is Series 2 (any grading matches, if necessary, will be Aug 1). The Division grades continue until Sept 17/18 with a finals night Sept 25 (all grades – including Premier too).
Clubs will be preparing Series 2 team entries for the Division grades over the next few weeks so keep in contact with your club contacts about this – it is also a good time to bring in extra people into the winter interclub who weren’t available earlier so clubs can add more teams or make some alterations if necessary. Ask a friend who hasn’t played interclub before to come in for series 2 – a 7 week series could be a good introduction for them.
There is also a junior interclub starting around the same time for those more entry-level juniors who might not yet be ready for regular interclub.
OK, playing catchup, Week 5 results are below for completeness but expecting week 6 results on the weekend, watch this space.
Week 5: Winter Interclub 18-19 June
This file was held by the interclub committee while determining a result. I’m posting this now though the Week 5 results will be here soon!
Week 4: Winter Interclub 11-12 June
Another exciting week of interclub has gone by, and here are the results! We hope everyone is enjoying the competition
Here are the second week’s results for Winter Interclub! Looks like some close and exciting matches took place.
& now for some assorted pictures from that Wednesday night – Mat Hobbs
Results:2013 TTW Winter Week 1.
Gareth Telfer is again working on the statistics so thanks to Gareth for picking this task up.
Here are the draws for the Premier and Division grades. (Premier is analogous to Premier 1 last year while Divisions 1, 2, and 3 are analogous to last year’s Premier 2, 3, and 4.)
A note for the Division grades is the scoring system (points per team for each night) which are noted at the bottom of the draw sheet:
Division Points:
- 11-0 & 10-1 Winner 5 pts / Loser 0 pts
- 9-2, 8-3, 7-4 Winner 4 pts / Loser 1 pt
- 6-5 Winner 3pts / Loser 2 pts
NB: If a team wins all seven of their contests, and hasn’t had points taken off for disciplinary reasons, they will win the grade even if another team has accrued more points overall.
For Premier it is simply 1 point for a win, 0 for a loss.
Refer to the documents for full details.
For the Division grades there is one series of 7 weeks, then a grade champs, then a second series – teams are re-entered for the second series so there could well be differences in teams from series 1 and series 2. For the Premier grade, there are three rounds with the same teams throughout.
Draw: Premier
Draw: Division 1 – Series 1
Draw: Division 2 – Series 1
Draw: Division 3 – Series 1
And the Rules & Code of Conduct. Please look through these, these are affective from the start of 2013 winter interclub.

2013 Code of Conduct
Let the games begin!
Malcolm Wong has a lot of old records and sent in a story about the interclub grade he was involved in 1993, 20 years ago (pre-merger with Hutt Valley so it is only the Wellington teams). For those of you who have been around long enough some of the names will be recognisable and many are still playing today!
Blast from the Past
1993 Wellington A Reserve Grade remembered.
There were ten teams representing seven clubs, with Titan providing three teams. After the first round the top six teams qualified for Divison 1 and the bottom four teams for Division 2. Team results, and individual averages attached.
The first round was won by Onslow A (22 points) ahead of Karori (20) and Te Rama (19). The Onslow A team were all juniors. Their top player was Jamie Lennox, who had won the NZ under 13 Boys Doubles (1992). He would be selected for the New Zealand under 17 Boys Team (1995-96). Jonathan Armstrong was to win the NZ Under 21 Men’s Doubles (1996). Andrew Wiggins was the Wellington Secondary School’s Boys Singles winner that year.
Karori had the veteran, Ken Hindson, and two juniors, Simon Reed and Mark Jurgeleit. Ken had won the Te Rama Club Singles (1989) and would be in the Te Rama Team (with Matthew Hobbs and Malcolm Wong) that would win Division 2 at the Manawatu Teams Tournament (1996). Simon would be later involved in coaching Wellington Junior teams (1998-2001) and was the Manager/Coach of the Wellington Under 19 Boys Team that won the NZ Under 19 Boys Teams Title (2000) beating Canterbury 5-4 in the final.
Te Rama had an experienced team. Malcolm Wong and Martin Young were in the Te Rama Team had won the A Reserve Grade (1991) with David Robinson. Malcolm was in the Te Rama Team that won the C Grade (1986) and B Grade (1989). He has won 9 Te Rama Club Singles and also the Titan Club Singles (1995). Martin was in the Ling Tse Team that won the C2 Grade (1987) and C Grade (1988). He has won 15 Te Rama Club Singles. Brian Neale had played A Grade for Victoria University and Newlands. He was in the Newlands Team that won the A Reserve Grade (1971,1986 & 1989). He has won 10 Newlands Club Singles.Brian was in the Victoria University Team that won the NZ University Teams Tournament (1963) and he was runner up in the Men’s Singles.
Another good junior was Graeme Windley (Onslow B) who played mainly B Grade that year. He was NZ Under 17 Boys Singles runner up (1995) and won the NZ Under 19 Boys Doubles (1996) and NZ Under 21 Men’s Doubles (1999).
Other players still involved today were Kevin Haines (Onslow B), Bob Bell (Newlands)[recently moved to Napier] and Matthew Hobbs (Titan C). Bob won the Newlands Club Singles (1996) and Onslow Club Singles (2011). Matthew won the Onslow Club Singles (2012).
In Division 1 Te Rama won all their matches. There were 2 crucial matches. In the third round Te Rama beat Karori 6-5 despite Ken Hindson winning his 3 singles. Then in the penultimate round Te Rama played the leaders Onslow A, who were leading by 2 points. Te Rama needed to win by 7-4 or more to gain 3 points and move into the lead. Onslow started well and lead 4-2 only for Te Rama to win the last 5 matches. Malcolm Wong won all his 3 singles for Te Rama. In the last round Te Rama beat Titan A 9-2 to win the Grade. Division 2 was won by Titan B.for whom Ross McFarland starred.
In the grade match against Hutt Valley (8 August) two A Reserve Grade teams were selected. A Reserve 1 (Malcolm Wong, Martin Young and Hamish Rennie) and A Reserve 2 (David Buckrell, Nick Julian and Matthew Hobbs). The Hutt Valley A Reserve 1 Team (Staff Marshall, Stan Joe and Brett Pottinger) won 7-4 and their A Reserve 2 Team (Jeremy Evans, Steve Westmoreland and Darren O’Brien) won 8-3
In the A Reserve Grade Chanpionships (25 August) Te Rama had more success. Martin Young won the Singles against team mate Malcolm Wong (1990 & 1991 winner). In the Doubles Malcolm Wong and Martin Young won for the third successive year when they beat Jonathan Armstrong and David Buckrell.
