The next meeting of the Warrington Quiz League Council will be its Annual General Meeting, which will be on Sunday 27^th May 2012 at the Bull’s Head, Church Street, Warrington.  Any proposals for the AGM must be submitted to the Secretary, Derek Moody, at least two weeks beforehand.  A regular Council Meeting will take place immediately following the AGM.

Congratulations to Kirkfield Hotel who, as announced some weeks ago, have secured the Division 1 Championship; Runners-up position has been won by WSC Woodworms.  The Division 1 Handicap has been won by Yarboroughs.

The Division 2 Championship has been won by Alford Academicals with Nematodes having secured the Runners-up position.  The Division 2 Handicap has been won by Alford Academicals on points difference after an extremely close contest.

Depending on the number of registrations for next season, it is likely that Grappenhall Gadlings will be relegated to Division 2 and Alford Academicals promoted to Division 1.

Question sets are still required from Birchwood Pilgrims, Grappenhall Gadlings, and Nematodes.  Please submit these either by email to Cliff Houghton with a copy to Stuart Miller, or by ordinary mail to either Stuart or Cliff.
