Ranking in the world league

A quick look at the Yorkshire Meds ranking in the British World Championship league table

 When  we found out about the tournament in 2004, we would have been delighted to being there as spectators; so just the joy of being  ableto participate and play as a team was wonderful. This also followed the true essence of the tournament; "tradition rather than competition" -  or perhaps tradition and competition. Nothing like a little bit of competition to spice up the day and fun.

It took Yorkshire Meds a couple of years to get around the "Ring marbles rules of the game"; with most of the players originally coming from Algeria; they knew of marbles only as an individual game using the single hole rules.
