2004 SAPPA 3-Person Team Championships
Last Sunday saw the 2004 edition of the 3-Person Team Event, being held this year at Pennies in Falkirk and featuring 24 teams from the length and breadth of Scotland. The format featured 6 groups of 4 teams playing a round-robin format with 16 teams moving onto the knock-out phases. The top 2 teams from each group would automatically qualify for the knock-out phase along with the 4 best 3rd place teams.In the event of 2 or more teams being tied on points, racks won would then come into consideration. If 2 teams were still tied within a group, the result of the match between those teams would then sort out the final group standings. These cases are marked with an asterisk (*) in the group tables.
