Tooke Memorial Prize

This trophy, a silver plated goblet mounted on a plinth engraved with the winners' names, is awarded annually to the member achieving the highest score in matches for the Club each season. The matches which count towards the Tooke are decided by the Committee but in principle include all 1st Team and "A" Team fixtures listed on this page, including the Banks Team Swiss "A" Team matches, played at standard rates of play up to and including 31st May each season (results known at that date).

If two or more members record the same highest score then the member or members with the lower(est) number of games played (ie highest average) shall be awarded the trophy.

In the statistics below, the grade given after each name purports to be the grade published in the ECF Grading List 2009.  The grading given in the end column ('Perf.') is the Grading Performance resulting from the statistics listed, subject to a minimum of three gradeable results.  The Grading Performance is a statistic for interest only; it is not an official grading and should not be used for any other purpose (e.g. grading limit competition).

2009-10 Competition

Each season's competition for the Tooke Memorial Prize has a cut off date of 31st May (results known at that date).

The final position for the 2009-10 season is shown below. We congratulate Martin Page on winning the Tooke Memorial Prize by half a point over Ian Hunnable. Page was trailing for much of the season and in fact only took the lead in the last match when he had an impressive win against Legal, while Hunnable lost.
