Both scopsm and Boddington retain their top two positions of last season.
2019 Fiso Champions Mug is on its way to scopsm.
Thanks, everyone, for playing.

[Boddington]

Thanks for running another great contest throughout the year that keeps us all entertained and updated.
Much appreciated.

[scopsm]

Yes, always very entertaining. Looking forward to adding the mug to my collection. Thanks Sam.

[Ralfbergs]

Thanks for running Sam! Top comp as always

[scopsm]

Sam,
Received the FISO Champions Cup. Will post pic in due course.
Many thanks.

[The Bear]

Anyone know if TFF Dreamteam is still on this season ?

[murf]

Anyone know if TFF Dreamteam is still on this season ?

Hope so but no sign of (new) life on their website

Could try - support@tennisforfree.com

[Surprised]

It starts Monday so I expect the site will be running Friday or late Thursday as they are often late as run by volunteers I think.
