  • Erik Laerz, along with Robyn Schweitzer were responsible for the task of scheduling officials for the 319 tournament games.
  • The Esso Golden Ring Hospitality Night was held on Friday, January 22. The informal function, provided free of charge to all participants was held at the Village Square Leisure Centre. Activities included crafts, kareoke, face painting, games, and lots of food.
