 Goring Tennis Club Quiz 2005 goes High-tech
The 2005 Quiz Night was held on Saturday, 15th October, 2005 at the Morrell Rooms.
This year introduced automated scoring with computer projection onto a large wall screen and crisp, clear, digitised audio for the music round. The quiz now moves into the new millennium!
The six teams selected some innovative names (in no particular order):
- Game Set & Match
- Purple Patch
- International Rescue
- You Cannot Be Serious
- Mary’s Gladiators
- The Optimists
Quiz master, Mark T, and the adjudicator Sue, set some intriguing questions, becoming progressively harder throughout the evening, but always provoking the feeling “I should have known that” and the appropriate level of groans and cheers as the answers were read out.
By the half way point, when the Ploughman’s refreshments were served, only 8 points separated all the teams.
But Purple Patch were aptly named and in the latter rounds they had just that, as they romped to final victory.
A most entertaining evening. Thanks again to Mark and Sue and also Linda B for organising the event.
A presentation of a box of wine was made to the webmaster, Phil R in recognition of his recent efforts in setting up the new website.
Editor’s Note:
This was most unexpected, but very much appreciated.
