Aberconway Cup 2016: New Management, Same Result
Chris Hughes reports:
19/04/16: There were lots of firsts at the annual Fathers and Sons competition this year. Most notably, a legend of the game, Mike Fenn, had decided (potentially foolishly) to pass the baton of organising the competition over to a disorganised 20 something year old who still struggles to get out of bed in the morning and hold down a job. Gareth saw this talent in there somewhere, though, and quickly gave me a ‘job for life’ and with very little choice in the matter I think I accepted.

A dry but slightly cold day greeted the fourteen pairs as they as they arrived early at Eton for a prompt 10am start.

Aberconway Cup 2014: Williams G-Force Win Again
Mike Fenn reports:
This year’s Fathers & Sons Championship took place at Eton College on the same day as the Kinnaird National Championships final. This had its attractions in that there were many more spectators at the College than normal but with the downside that all watched the Kinnaird match rather than the semi-finals and final of the Aberconway!
