Peter was also a former member of Monkstone PC.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The competition took the form of a 3 round melee run by President Mike Jones.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">After Round 1 there were 4 players tying for first place with wins of 13-2 &#8211; Rose, Roger, Sean and Gill. Things were shaken up a bit in Round 2 with all three leaders losing. Only Rose managed to stay in the top 3 &#8211; first was Keith with +21, followed by new girl Jane with +16 and Rose on +15.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The position going into the final round was that only Jane &amp; Rose could topple Keith but they would need to win by almost 13-0 and Keith would have to lose by a similar score. In the event this proved to much to overcome but all three carved out a win and there was no change in the top three. Final scores were Keith +34, Jane +27 and Rose +24.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-2525 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.monkstonepetanque.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BB-Melee-1-715x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"387\" height=\"554\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.monkstonepetanque.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BB-Melee-1-715x1024.jpg 715w, https:\/\/www.monkstonepetanque.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BB-Melee-1-209x300.jpg 209w, https:\/\/www.monkstonepetanque.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BB-Melee-1-768x1100.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 387px) 100vw, 387px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>El Presidente presents the shield to Keith<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-2526 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.monkstonepetanque.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BB-Melee-2-715x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"392\" height=\"561\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.monkstonepetanque.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BB-Melee-2-715x1024.jpg 715w, https:\/\/www.monkstonepetanque.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BB-Melee-2-209x300.jpg 209w, https:\/\/www.monkstonepetanque.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BB-Melee-2-768x1100.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 392px) 100vw, 392px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Jane, Keith &amp; Rose<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Earlier this month, Monkstone Petanque Club paid its respects to former member Bernard Bradshaw, who passed away earlier this year, in the form of a memorial melee.
