Session Notes - January 17, 2008 Session
This session marked the eleventh week of NSA Club #565's 2007-2008 season!
Since this season will be our first full season as a two-tiered club with both a Recreational and a separate Tournament Rules Division. There will be some tweaking done as the Recreational Division develops.
We were joined by 4 tournament division players who played 22 games. Of the 31 recorded bingos we played, 2 were phoneys that went unchallenged.
We welcomed Pat Madea into our tournament division this week so no games were played in our recreational division. Click here for a roster of Recreational Players
