There were 26 of us for the last week of Season 23, including Tova, Ya'ir and No'am (spectator only) who showed up for a couple of games. Welcome all!
Final standings first. Evan, Raz and Adriana finished in the top positions of their divisions, a position they've held almost since the beginning of the season. For Raz and Adriana, that means a promotion! Raz will spend season 24 in Aardvark, and Adriana will spend season 24 in Madoqua. They will each be joined by the winners of the playoffs in their respective divisions. There were a few small shifts in Aardvark and Zyzzyva, but Liliane was the biggest climber of all, up 2 positions at this late stage.
Scorewise, not bad. There were not 500+ scores, but Linda, Ari, Andrew and Daniel all had there best ever scores. There were also six 1200+ triples (Raz, Omri, Ari, Chaya, Julie, Phyllis). Well done, all!

Player of the Week: Phyllis had a good night, winning three for the second straight week. But it was Ari's turn to truly shine last week. In the final week of season 23 (and his second-last week in the club), Ari won his three games, scoring better than ever. Ari is Player of the Week. Well done!
Word-of-the-Week: 58 played, and some nice ones. Amos' COCHAIRS was beautiful. Ari's WHEREAS was pretty too. But the award goes to Omri's RITORNEL, which is Word of the Week. Well done!
