After merely 8 playing teams last year, there were 7 students` and guests` teams and 6 teachers` teams registered this year.

Unfortunately, 3 teams did not turn up, so the whole tournament modus had to be modified shortly. As a result, the Börde Team played against the teachers` teams, whereas the students` teams played in their own group at a different place. Everyone played everyone else.

For the first time in the long history of our tournaments, there was a team of our partner  school “Heinrich Mann Sekundarschule” present as well as 4 teams of our school. Year 10 of our partner school remarkably  came 3^rd in the end, but the trophy was won by Mr. Jüttner`s team of former students of ours. Year 11 came 2^nd, a selection of year 13 players had to accept to come  4^th and 5^th with their teams.

Regular tough training turned out to be essential and successful both in the students` and the teachers` teams. Team “Börde” was unbeaten and was handed over the trophy by our headmaster, Mr. Meier. Our partner school team of Rheine College , unfortunately, failed repeatedly to prove their true abilities. Weakened by activities during  the evening before the tournament, they came 5^th without gaining any big points.

The other 3 teams were fighting hard and all of them ended up 6:6 in the chart, so the “small points” were taken into consideration to decide that the hosting team BbS OvG came 2^nd whereas team Haldensleben came 3^rd and BbS “Hermann Beims” came 4^th.
