4 players competed in the league finals in Dublin on the 28th November.
The competitors were Donal Coghlan from Leinster, Seamus
McKenna from Ulster and Willie Coughlan and Tom Worden
from Munster. Unfortunately I had to bow out due to Helena's sickness
at home, luckily Tom was travelling up for moral support for Willie so
he kindly agreed to play the 2 games.
Anyway, the 2009 RINIWA DBMM League winner is Willie Coughlan
on 32 VP! Well done and good to see a new name on the cup.
Runners up were:
Tom Worden 31 VP, Donal Coghlan 30VP and Seamus McKenna 7VP.
Many thanks and well done to all competitors.
