May i congratulate Tony on winnning the player of the year for this year.
Whilst being obviously a bit dissapointed, i am more than happy with my performances this year, after a somewhat dissapointing year last year. Plus my continued involvement in the B & D singles, and my elimination in last 8 of doubles, and runner up P.O.Y.
The better player over the year won, and I wish Tony all the luck in the P.O.Y tournament.
I also want to say, lets all get it together and win the Cup Final,and hence go to the champions of champions next year, and hopefully next years race is exciting as this one has been, and we can all lead the ZEDS to the B & D premier division title.
